Description

Troia is an ancient town with millennial history, located on the lower hills of the Daunia Apennines, almost 22km from Foggia. Thanks to the beauty of its historic centre, it has been awarded the prestigious Orange Flag by the Italian Touring Club. The Apulian-Romanesque Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption, built on two floors between 1093 and 1125, is the pride of the elegant historic centre and symbol of the town. Laid out on a Latin cross, the architectural highlight of the cathedral is the 13th-century rose window, a magnificent example of stone embroidery that is unique in the world, whose eleven segments, created by mullions and tracery, each differ. The beautiful rose window is sustained by a bronze portal, decorated with reliefs of saints and bishops.
