Grottaglie Private Tour

Having met up at Porta San Giorgio at the agreed time, we'll set off on our private tour of Grottaglie's monumental and cultural heritage.

Our guided tour will begin with the town's historic centre, which features palaces and churches. We'll visit the 14th-century Mother Church of Grottaglie, the town's most notable religious building.

Next, we'll proceed to Episcopo Castle, a 14th-century fortress originally comprising a rectangular keep. The current Baroque façade is a result of later modifications.

We'll visit the Ceramic Museum, located in the former stables of the castle, to explore the local ceramic tradition. The museum showcases archaeological finds, traditional and contemporary ceramics, and scenes from the nativity.

Afterwards, we'll tour the nearby ceramics district along the San Giorgio ravine, where master ceramists established workshops in former oil mills, contributing to Grottaglie's reputation as "the city of ceramics".

After 2 hours of exploring this fascinating town, we'll conclude our private tour of Grottaglie.
