Storia comune di San Pancrazio Salentino provincia di Brindisi

The name clearly refers to the Saint: a first village rose around a pre-existing church dedicated to Saint Pancrazio who was supposed to spend some days in this land during his trip to Rome. A first settlement in that area dates back to 8th and 3rd centuries BC. In the 1st century AC the settlement was abandoned and then used by Romans as stronghold. A new village rose up between the 10th and the 11th centuries and it was under the bishops of Brindisi until 1866. San Pancrazio as well suffered the Saracens’ attacks: the worst one was on January 1st 1547.
