Province of Foggia
Province of Foggia, Administrative province in Apulia, Italy.
The Province of Foggia covers the northern part of Apulia and includes the Gargano peninsula as well as the broad Tavoliere plain. The territory extends from rocky coastlines and forested ridges to flat fields that stretch toward the horizon.
Daunian tribes settled the plains and coastal areas in pre-Roman times and shaped the early history of this land. After Roman conquest the territory became part of the empire and remained a passage zone for trade and migration over the centuries.
The province contains 61 municipalities, with San Giovanni Rotondo housing the sanctuary of San Pio da Pietrelcina that draws numerous religious visitors.
Most visitors arrive through the city of Foggia, from where roads and rail connections lead to surrounding towns. Those planning to explore the interior and coastline should consider using their own vehicle or checking public transport options in advance.
The Lesina and Varano lagoons are shallow waters separated from the sea by narrow strips of land and today form important habitats for migratory birds. Fishermen have used these waters for centuries and preserve old techniques passed down to younger generations.
