What you can expect

Embark on a half-day journey to the legendary Castel del Monte, a striking fortress set atop a gentle hill in the heart of Alta Murgia National Park, just 20 kilometres from Andria. Departing comfortably from Bari in a private minivan, you’ll travel through the scenic Apulian countryside to one of Italy’s most fascinating historical sites.

Built around 1240 by Frederick II of Hohenstaufen—known as Stupor Mundi for his brilliance and cultural legacy—Castel del Monte is an architectural enigma. Its unique octagonal design, possibly inspired by astronomical principles or created as an elaborate hunting lodge, sets it apart from every other castle in Puglia. Today, it stands as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a powerful symbol of medieval innovation.

Explore the castle’s interiors at your own pace with included admission, soaking in its symmetry, mystery, and panoramic views. A film set for Wonder Woman in 2016, Castel del Monte is a place where history, myth, and cinematic magic meet.
