Storia comune di Poggiardo provincia di Lecce

The place name comes from “podium ardum” that means “steep knoll” and it refers to the wood surrounding the town. It seems that Poggiardo was born after the destruction of three villages (Puzze, Soranello and Casicalvi) during the Norman age. It was not a real foundation, but it was a steady progress of some rupestrian villages that took shape as one village during the Anjous age.
