Peschici is an enchanting seaside village perched on the northernmost ridge of the suggestive Gargano promontory.
Access to the quaint old town is through the ancient city gate flanked by a watchtower that ended the ancient medieval walls, now partly destroyed or incorporated into subsequent constructions
In the historic center of Peschici there is a fascinating mix of different architectural styles, domed houses and sloping roofs, an expression of different historical periods and dominations.
In the central Piazza del Popolo is the ancient Church of Purgatory, simple but evocative with its continuous reference to the theme of death with the Crusader skulls placed on the external facade and on the altar.

On the most extreme rocky ridge stands the castle, its profile dominates the sea and overlooks a truly suggestive panorama.
