· Egnazia Archaeological Park
Egnazia is an ancient ruin that once stood as a thriving coastal town of the Messapii people – Findings date human settlements as far back as the Bronze Age and the town is dated to the 8th century BC. Thousands of years old, all that remains of the town now are the foundations and remains of the building walls but it is still an interesting site to visit.
Approximately an hour to the east of Bari, Egnazia is a rare find and for those who are interested in ancient history is a great attraction.
Aside from the ruins, there is also a museum that showcases some of the artefacts found at the site, together with information about its history.
