Alberobello is a real tourist haven which is a bit disappointing. However, this house is an excellent way to view how the Trulli houses worked. This one is double storey which is rather unique. It is very modest in cost to enter and there are good explanations in English in each room. The original furniture and furnishings are present. Good value for a 30 minute stay.
Just behind the famous basilica S.S Cosma and Damiano overlooking the city about 20 meters away you can admire the equally ''Trullo Sovrano'', as they call it here.. This too is a very well-preserved and restored trullo which you can also visit the inside to show the visitor how the ancient inhabitants of Alberobello they used to live. Nice experience.
This is the only true 2 story trullo in Alberobello. It is now a museum with typical furnishings. They have a nice book store inside, too. Some stairs that may not be accessible for all.
Among the most popular monuments in Alberobello,behind the Basilica Santi Medici Cosma and Damiano,one of the most representative trullo:it goes back to the xvIII century.Nowadays it's a private museum with many object of the ancient agricultural life of Apulian people.
An interesting way of knowing how people use to live inside a trulli on the 17th century. You pay 1,50 euro for the visit.
Very good value and lots to see inside. An interesting insight into life in a trullo. Beware the mosquitoes in the garden, however.
As you meander through the quaint village looking at the trullo houses that have been turned into restaurants and shops, please take the time to find the actual resident who has preserved their house for the benefit of us tourists. It will give you a true sense of what the day-to-day life is like inside one of these houses. The attention to detail is great -- even down to the resident cat! Pretty cool!
Genuine historical interior, fixtures and fittings....guide will give a monologue lecture to you to commence your visit.....just explore at leisure....good bookstall selection
