ISCHITELLA Foggia (Puglia)
Sun and sea, Nature and welness
The place name probably comes from “ischio” that is a kind of oak, and from “tellus” that means “land”. The first document in which the town is mentioned dates back to 1058. It was a Swabian stronghold. It is now a growing tourism centre especially because it is part of the Gargano National Park.
Ischitella rises on a hill of olive groves and maquis on 300 meters above the sea level and it is part of the Gargano National Park. The town is full of springs and offers magnificent views from Tremiti Islands to Varano lake, where there is Foce Varano, the seacoast of Ischitella. In the historic centre there are the typical two-storey houses that overlook the narrow and twisting streets leading to the most important buildings: the Castle, the Saint Eustachio Church, Decata Palace and Saint Francesco convent.
