It is known as the queen of the 'Basso Ionio', mainly because of the fabulous setting of the old city nestling as it does on a small island which is connected to the mainland by a bridge.
The city is dominated by two structures;
the 15th century castle
and the Baroque cathedral full of Salentine and Neapolitan work.
There are many more churches of many hues, each having tin-glazed earthenware painted with flowers and fruits, both inside and out.
