When one has been around the village and appreciated the distinct character of the place, one is not all that impressed that they managed to fit out a church too. It only proves that the skill of building the trulli had been so well mastered, that bigger projects were accomplished. The edifice of the church is more massive than the houses and judging by the structure it is a wholesome piece of construction. Other than that the interior is just "churchy".

The chief draw is many trulli houses that are spread over a considerable area. The largest is to the southerly side of the principal road, Largo Martellotta, and provides the main tourist attraction with many souvenir shops and the like. The area to the north of Largo Martellotta seems to have rather more trulli houses in general occupation- and rather less tourists. Well worth a visit.
