CASTELLO SVEVO
Castle built by Frederick II, known for having been chosen by Manfredi in Trani.
The Swabian castle of Trani was built on the seafront to defend the town from maritime invasions. Built by Frederick II between 1233 and 1249, it still bears the mark of the Middle Ages, with its quadrangular plan, reinforced by four square corner towers. However, its interior, which has been modified over time, is no longer evocative, but it is worth visiting to admire the architecture, which is in a good state of preservation. This castle is known to have been chosen by Manfredi, son of Frederick II, as the place to celebrate his marriage to Elena Ducas.
