On the hills of Andria, at 540 m above sea level, stands the majestic Castel del Monte, which dominates the landscape with its imposing appearance: explore it with our Evolved Guide local tourist guide during the Castel del Monte walking tour. The castle was built in the thirteenth century by Frederick II of Swabia, king of Sicily and emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. You will be enchanted by the beauty and by colors of this place: the blue of the sky mixes with the white of the limestone used for the walls, but also the coral breccia, which seems like porphyry (the precious material reserved exclusively for emperor). In this castle there are very different and unique architectures: the octagonal structure is used both for the external perimeter and for the internal courtyard and for the towers. It is a true masterpiece of architecture and engineering. Enjoy the splendid panorama. Discover one of the most visited tourist destinations in Italy, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996. It is such an important monument that it was chosen to be represented on the Italian 1 cent coins and was the location of the Wonder Woman. With our tour you will explore its structure and you will enter into the towers and rooms of the castle: you will be fascinated by it.
