Modugno, Administrative division in Metropolitan City of Bari, Italy.
Modugno is a commune located around 10 kilometers northwest of Bari at 76 meters elevation in the Metropolitan City of Bari. The town blends residential areas with farming land, creating a mix of contemporary buildings and older structures throughout its layout.
The area was called Medunium during Roman times and later changed under Byzantine rule. In the 11th century, the Normans took control and shaped its subsequent development.
The Church of Santa Maria Santissima Annunziata features architectural details from different periods, including its bell tower finished in 1615 with Apulian Romanesque style. This building reflects the town's religious identity and draws visitors interested in local construction traditions.
The area connects well to major cities in Puglia through an extensive road network and public transportation links. Visitors can reach the town easily and explore the surrounding region without extensive planning.
The Sanctuary of Santa Maria della Grotta began as an eighth-century rock church used by Basilian monks. It later became a Benedictine abbey that served crusaders passing through the region.
