Cisternino

- The labyrinth of the Itria Valley -

One of the most characteristic villages of the Itria Valley, with almost oriental charm, consisting of alleys and alleys: Cisternino is only 7 km from Petranima. The village is scenically erected on a limestone step of the Eastern Murgia dominating the Itria Valley. A historic center with a labyrinth of alleys dominated by arches, white houses leaning, balconies, stone masks and outdoor stairs that overlook hidden courtyards… The airy Piazza Vittorio Emanuele, the Clock Tower, the imposing quadrangular Tower and the matrix Church of San Nicola make this village a real charm.

Gastronomy

One of the distinctive features of Cisternino is its perfume. Yes, you got it right… the perfume! Walking through the streets of the village, in fact, you can not help but notice a certain scent of embers that hovers in the air! Cisternino is famous for its meat: Sausages, bowls and the famous ‘’gnumeredd” of lamb are just some of the tasty meats that you can taste accompanied by a good glass of red wine!

Art & Culture

As often happens in small villages… traditions are respected! Starting from the feast of Saint Anthony, on 17 January, they pass through Pasquaredde and then arrive at the feasts under the starry sky of August. Certainly among the most celebrated celebrations there are precisely that of Easter Monday, which takes place at the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Ibernia in a strategic position to enjoy a breathtaking view and that of San Quirico, the first Sunday of August.
