Church with an architectural layout reminiscent of the rotunda of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, with fine fragmentary frescoes.

Hidden at the end of a small square, this adorable and venerable church bears witness to a time when the port of Brindisi was a gateway to the Holy Land. Founded around the year 1100 by the Norman prince Bohemond on his return from the Crusades, it has a circular plan that was to recall the architecture of the rotunda of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. Its beautiful sculpted portals, its fragmentary frescoes of the 13th-15th centuries and its peaceful atmosphere make it a nugget not to be missed.

Entrée payante (3 euros), bon la visite n'est pas exceptionnelle quand même, de la vieille pierre et de belles colonnes, peintures polychromes un peu défraîchies, manque de lumière à l'intérieur, photos sans flash!

Intéressante visite
La visite de cette sépulture ne vous prendra que 10 minutes et ne vous coûtera que 2€ mais elle nous a bien impressionné ! Les murs du temple sont étonnamment bien conservés et chargés en histoire. Très intéressant !
