Duomo di Molfetta - Parrocchia San Corrado

Reviewed By RubaSkala - Canberra, Australia

The old city of Molfetta is undergoing some serious reconstruction at present. The area around the harbour will be a real show piece in the years ahead ... Just at present it is like walking through a construction site .. Unfortunately the rest of the town is mainly apartments and lots of traffic ... Wait it will be terrific some time in the future ...

Visit Molfetta

Reviewed By Eli B - Sydney, Australia

Its mysterious origins, given the Neolithic settlement uncovered hereabouts, provided the necessary hook to grab our interest. Add to this a lovely Walled medieval town with a splendid Romanesque Cathedral and we "are in like Flynn".
The port offers a harmony of low structures geometrically contrasting with the blue, blue of the sparkling waters and the static boat life. But it is the striking deep blue of the Mediterranean sky that contrasts stunningly with the charming, whitewashed walls of the beautiful town.
We love the historical centre, from which one spies the olive groves up the hills making this a paradise close to a series of dazzling, unspoilt Beaches.

Puglia Outlet Village

Reviewed By planbee - Perth, Australia

"She who must be obeyed", my wife, hoped to pick up some bargain Italian fashion items at this outlet village but had no luck. The complex is large and includes a cinema but unfortunately on our visit in late September 2015 only a half of the shops were occupied. There was a good range of clothing for men women and children although few international labels had stores there and most were Italian labels. Prices seemed high for the end of summer season stocks and they had some new season items which, although marked down, still seemed high but I then I am not really familiar with the Italian labels.
Most of the outlets on the Adriatic coast seem to be at individual sites, not always easy to find and not conveniently in outlet villages like Puglia Outlet Centre. You really need to know the brands you like and check the opening hours before you visit any individual site outlets.
Puglia Outlet Centre is worth a visit for an hour or so and hopefully will gain more stores. Food and drink is available and there are good clean toilets and plenty of car parking.

Cattedrale Santa Maria Assunta

Reviewed By talusha - Moscow, Russia

Довольно обычная и ничем не запомнившаяся церковь на подступах к исторической части города, если открыта, можно уделить минут 10, чтобы пройтись вдоль боковых капелл, причем больше для галочки, чем ради того, чтобы увидеть что-то интересное.

Museo Diocesano di Molfetta

The Museum of the Diocese of Molfetta, Ruvo, Giovinazzo and Terlizzi, set out over three levels in the elegant surroundings of the sixteenth-century Jesuit College (today used as an Episcopal Seminary), houses works of great historic, artistic, archeological and liturgical value, “living” historical evidence to the path of faith which has been accomplished by the local church over the centuries. Each artefact has its own place along that path, the path that any ecclesiastical museum should aim to retrace, and a path in which the museum also carries out its pastoral function.The museum’s route starts with a rich archeological section, including both pre-historic and pre-Roman material. Also on the ground floor, the Lapidarium room certainly constitutes one of the most “living” pieces of evidence of the history of the Diocese, as it contains various architectural fragments and sculptures which have come from Molfetta’s ancient Duomo (cathedral), from other churches and from local street furniture.The museum’s route leads the visitor to the contemplation of the Mystery of Easter, which comes to life here thanks to the harmonious arrangement of the antique wooden statues used in Molfetta’s Holy Week, commissioned by the Confraternity of Death. Ideally immersed in the processional route which winds around the streets of the town. The first floor of the museum houses the beautiful, monumental Library of the Espiscopal Seminary which houses, in its elegant bookcases, around 47,000 volumes including manuscripts, incunables, graduals, cinquecentine and numerous other volumes dating back to the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, originating from the library funds of the ex-Jesuit College. The picture gallery, on the second floor of the museum, aims to illustrate the development of local painting over the centuries, by using numerous pieces of evidence from all over the diocese. The wealth of paintings on display span an arc of time from the fifteenth century to the modern day, highlighting various areas of contact with the contemporary art of southern Italy.

Я вообще люблю местные "краеведческие" музеи в разных странах. Сюда, правда, забрели скорее для галочки, но музей неожиданно оказался весьма интересным: местные епископы собирали древности, есть тут и греческая керамика, и скульптура, и особенно порадовала шикарная библиотека. Музей очень ухоженный, есть информация на английском.

Chiesa di Santo Stefano

Reviewed By RinoBIROTAteam - Taranto, Italia

Piccola chiesa nel borgo. La costruzione cominciò nel XIII secolo, e proseguì fino al XVI. Bella da vedere, e misteriosa perchè custodisce al suo interno le statue dei "misteri", che vengono portate in processione a Pasqua. Da vedere

Essendo un marittimo nato a Molfetta, ogni qualvolta sono in città vengo a visitare questa splendida Basilica e a rendere omaggio alla sua Madonna chiedendo protezione per me è famiglia. Un mito in Molfetta che esplode in tutta il suo potere durante la festa dell'8 settembre. Ave Maria.

Torrione Passari

Reviewed By Silbolyka - Chiclana de la Frontera, Spain

La entrada es gratuita. Se encuentra ubicada en el centro histórico, la entrada por fuera parece un edificio normal donde siempre hay un hombre que incluso te pregunta si quieres que te cuente la historia del sitio. Subes por una escalera donde te encuentras arriba a mano derecha una sala que se suele usar para conferencias o exposiciones, y a la izquierda es por donde se sale a la torre. Desde allí las vistas son espectaculares, merece la pena subir. Si hace mucho viento puede ser algo desagradable pues allí se nota mucho más, con abrigarse solucionado. Las vistas desde allí del atardecer son hermosísimas.
