In evidenza
The guided tour of Monte Sant’Angelo will mainly focus on the historic center, the castle, and the Sanctuary of Saint Michael the Archangel, which in 2011 became a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the Longobard routes in Puglia. The tour begins with an external visit of the castle, originally a Byzantine fortress built before the year 1000, later flanked by a tower, the so-called Tower of the Giants, characterized by a height of 18 meters and walls 3 meters thick, and expanded by the Normans, Swabians, and Aragonese. After the castle, you will reach the exterior of the Sanctuary of Saint Michael, where you will admire the imposing octagonal tower built by Charles I of Anjou, modeled after Castel del Monte. At the main altar, you can admire the statue of St.Michael the Archangel, made of Carrara marble. Spectacular is the cave, where St.Michael the Archangel has been venerated since the 5th century. The tour ends with a visit to the museum and the lapidarium inside the basilica

Itinerario
The castle of Monte Sant’Angelo is a majestic fortress of Byzantine origin, expanded over the centuries by the Normans, Swabians, and Aragonese. It overlooks the town from above with its imposing walls and the famous Tower of the Giants, bearing witness to its strategic and defensive role throughout history ( external visit )
The Sanctuary of Monte Sant’Angelo is one of the most important places of worship dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel, a pilgrimage destination since the 5th century. Partly set inside a natural cave, it preserves a deep spiritual atmosphere rich in history, art, and devotion.
The historic center of Monte Sant’Angelo is a charming maze of narrow streets, white houses, and stone stairways that reflect its ancient medieval origins. Walking through its alleys, you can feel an authentic atmosphere, with arches, small squares, and panoramic views over the Gargano, along with artisan shops and living traditions.
