Luxury Ostuni Holidays

Located on the coast of Murgia the city of Ostuni, also known as The White City, is well known for its dazzling white-washed buildings. The surrounding countryside, consisting of numerous olive groves, encapsulates the picturesque city.

Ostuni Cathedral, which stands upon the city’s tallest point, is one of Ostuni’s best known landmarks. Built in the late 15th century, the Cathedral boasts a magnificent rose window which contains Christ at its heart surrounded by twenty- four columns which signify the twenty-four hours in the day.

Just outside the city lies the grotto of the Sanctuary of St. Orontius. This historic cave contains a 16th Century fresco which depicts St John and St Orontius around the Madonna with child.
