Province of Barletta-Andria-Trani
Province of Barletta-Andria-Trani, Administrative province in Apulia, Italy.
Barletta-Andria-Trani is an administrative division in Apulia that stretches from the Adriatic coastline to the limestone plateau of Murgia. It encompasses ten municipalities with olive groves, vineyards, and historic settlements scattered across the territory.
The division was formed in 2009 from ten municipalities that previously belonged to Bari and Foggia. Andria became the seat of government, while the three capital cities share administrative responsibilities among themselves.
Coastal towns preserve fishing traditions that date back centuries, while inland communities rely on stone mills to produce olive oil. Local craftsmen continue working with limestone using techniques inherited from the area's Romanesque buildings.
Governmental functions are distributed across Barletta, Andria, and Trani, so visitors may need to visit different municipalities depending on their needs. Coastal towns offer direct sea access, while the plateau has a cooler inland climate.
Margherita di Savoia hosts one of the largest salt production facilities in Europe, with basins stretching for kilometers along the coast. Flamingos regularly use these shallow waters as a resting spot during their migration routes.
