News about Oria
It is located on the highest heights of a hilly cord in the north of Salento, which gives it a dominant position on the surrounding Salento plain.
According to the historic Herodotus, the city was founded when a group of Cretans would be beaten by a storm on the Ionian coast and, landing on these lands, would have founded Hyria, around 1400 BC.
The place of worship that best tells the history of Oria is the Cathedral Basilica dedicated to Maria SS. Assumption in Heaven. The building strongly recalls the shapes of the famous Basilica of San Pietro, so as to be called the small San Pietro. The external walls are made of carparo, the dome is clad with polychrome bricks and the plant is made of a Latin cross with three naves. Inside you can admire the fine marbles and stuccos, paintings, candlelights and statues;
Another symbol of the city is the Montalbano Park, a particular value historic park, located close to the eastern wall of the Norman-Svevo Castle. Inside, hedges of box guide the tourists between pools, ponds and picturesque corners of greenery. Through a series of stairs, you reach an enchanting panoramic promenade, which connects two towers of the adjacent Castle, built by Federico Ii. In the heart of the historic center there is Palazzo Martini, classic example of baroque architecture from the 11th century, which houses a museum of archaeological material, with finds related to to tombal contexts and not.
Oria is a caretaker of ancient traditions. The city loves to relive the most meaningful moments of the past, enhancing them with the participation of all its people who give them a sense of genuineness hardly forgotten. In a braid of history and legend, for 50 years every Saturday and Sunday of the second week of August, it pays tribute to the "his" Emperor, with the "Historic Courtyard of Federico Ii "Torneo dei Rioni".
The Historic Court involves over a thousand figures in period costume that parade along the main streets of the city, fabulously furnished with the colored windows of the four districts: Castle, Judea, Lama and Santo Basilio. The Tournament, however, is a real challenge among the districts, with twonis that make the medieval tournaments relive.
Oria is above all its people, who will welcome you with its affectionate friendliness and who will give you a serenity that elsewhere, perhaps, the serenity of the time overflows and does not offer.
