Storia comune di Villa Castelli provincia di Brindisi
he name origins are not sure: it is supposed to come from the Latin word “castellum”, meaning “small village”, or from the two castles existing in the town, the Castle of the farmhouse and the Palazzo Ducale that looks like a castle. As some archaeological finds show, the area was a stronghold of Taranto. At the end of the 18th century a noble bought all the territory and gave some plots to the neighbouring villages creating the existing town.
