About Ostuni, Puglia, Italy:
Province of Brindisi, Region Puglia (Apulia), Italy
The Locality: Situated west of Brindisi, on the Murge hills covered with alive trees, gently descending to the sea. The ancient part was built on seven hills, on the highest of which is the medieval citadel called "La Terra", surrounded by walls and round towers, with typical narrow alleys, arches, stairways and the famous whitewashed color of all the houses, for which it is known as the "White City". The name probably derives from the Latin Hostunium, a contamination of the Greek expression astu neon, meaning new town, while other ethimologies connect it to Histonium, the ancient name of the Abruzzi town of Vasto. |
