Leccese Stone Historical Buildings

To todai’s visitor, Italy may appear, on the one hand, alluring, dreamy,sacred and majestic, but on the other it is capable of trasmitting a mediterranean, profane feeling of semplicity.The original town centre of Lecce – known as the Florence of the South – is characterized by different styles: rococo, baroque renaissance, medieval and Roman. But the real protagonist is the splendid Baroque style. A walk round the old city centre, through innumerable winding little streets leads you to richly decorated façades which owe their particular charm to the local stone used to make them: the “alata” stone.
