Cattedralle Santa Maria Assunta is the official name of this Cathedral perched on top of the White City. You walk uphill the old town winding tiny streets until you reach it.
The present Cathedral dates back to 15c built in Gothic style with marvelous Rose window on the front facade. At night it is beautifully illuminated with a bar set around it side walls.

Beautiful paintings on the ceiling of the Nave. Rose window was beautiful although I personally like stain glass in it.

Compared to some of the great cathedrals in the Christian world, this building is quite modest, in both scale and decoration. The two side altars are more impressive than the central altar. Quite hard to get a good photo from outside as the building is positioned in what is now a quite small square at the top of the hill.

As you stroll up through the old city you will come across the cathedral. We happened to enter just as Sunday service was concluding. The building boasts an ornate ceiling and a lovely rose window.

Getting there is the main draw as you slowly meander up to the top of the hill where the Cathedral sits.
The exterior facade includes a beautiful stone rosette.The interior is less convincing and includes painted walls simulating marble.

The church is unique and has a very interesting rose window which is similar to the one in Lecce. Very nice frescoes inside.

Saw Duomo open and jumped in. Fabulous statue of St Francis. The facial expression is unforgettable. Closed in the afternoon.

The Cathedral of Ostuni (Duomo di Ostuni or Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta) was originally built as an Orthodox church around the year 1,000.
This first church was replaced a Romanesque building during the first half of the 13th century and finally rebuilt in Gothic style during the late 15th century.
The façade acquired its elegant rose window in the 15th century.
The interior has a number of artworks that covered the ceiling and altars.
Admission is free, although a (small) donation will always be appreciated.

A typical Italian church, good looking and quite ornate (especially the ceiling paintings) but nothing particularly outstanding.

Typical duomo in Italy. Ostuni is not easily reached by public transport and really offers little that Lecce or Bari does not beat hands down.

We didn't have a car for our stay in Bari, Puglia either. ... we traveled by train everywhere. ..there is a train from Polignano a Mare to Ostuni and then we took the local bus from the rail station into town. When we visited the olive oil farm, we took a taxi from the rail station to the farm. Hope this helps...Have a great trip!

Quando l'ho visitato io (agosto 2015) ho dovuto pagare 1€. Ma ne vale sicuramente la pena.
