Bisceglie, Coastal commune in Province of Barletta-Andria-Trani, Italy.

The historic center of Bisceglie features narrow stone streets lined with ancient churches and medieval buildings facing the Adriatic Sea.

Norman Count Peter I established fortifications in the 11th century, including the Torre Maestra watchtower to protect against Saracen raids.

The Cathedral of San Pietro houses the remains of martyrs Mauro, Sergio, and Pantaleone, drawing religious pilgrims throughout the year.
