The Historic Center of Barletta, in the "marine quarter" with nice churches, palaces and other monuments, excellently
preserves its medieval aspect and is not contaminated by modern constructions. The Dome is one of the most eminent
examples of the Romanesque style in Apulia with subsequent Gothic extensions, especially in the apse and bays: worthy
of being seen are above all the Bell-tower and the High Altar with a valuable veil on the top. The Castle is also
impressive; it was built by Frederick the Second on an existing Norman stronghold and subsequently widened by Charles
the Fifth. But Barletta is characterized by the so-called "Heraclius colossus", one of the nicest bronze sculptures
of the ancient world.
