MONTE SANT'ANGELO CASTELLO:

MONTE SANT'ANGELO CASTELLO

Monte Sant'Angelo castle, located in Gargano National Park, could be described as an age-old "historical narration" that today confirms its alternating dominations, populations and architectural styles. The first fortification was built by the Longobards. The Normans built the "Giganti" and "Quadra" towers, while Frederick II of Swabia built the so-called "treasury room". The current fortification mainly highlights the influence of the Aragons who, to defend themselves from enemies, created the almond shaped keep and the moat in front of the entrance to the castle.
