Acquaviva delle Fonti, Medieval commune in Metropolitan City of Bari, Italy

The town stands at 300 meters above sea level on the Murge plateau, approximately 26 kilometers from the Adriatic Sea and Bari.

The Norman lord Roberto Gurgulione established the Cathedral of Sant'Eustachio in the 12th century, incorporating Renaissance elements during later renovations.

The Madonna di Costantinopoli celebration occurs in September with processions through the streets, depicting the Virgin Mary's arrival in the town.

The Francesco Miulli regional hospital serves as a primary healthcare facility, ranking among the largest medical centers in southern Italy.

The local red onions, designated with DOP certification, grow under specific cultivation methods that maintain their characteristic sweet flavor.
