Paragon '700

Palazzo Rosso, (the red palace), has a long and fascinating history. Once the home of Ostuni‘s first mayor, Don Paolo Tanzarella, its walls tell the tumultuous story of the White City. Just steps away from the present-day Villa Comunale park, the venerable stone building has always been at the centre of the city’s social and cultural life: it was here that the trainieri (carriage drivers in Apulian dialect) were waiting for their daily assignments and it’s here today that one can immerse himself in the Ostuni’s life.
