Modugno, Administrative division in Metropolitan City of Bari, Italy.

Located 10 kilometers northwest of Bari at 76 meters above sea level, Modugno extends across a terrain mixing urban developments with agricultural lands.

Originally named Medunium during Roman times, the settlement transformed through Byzantine rule before becoming a Norman-controlled territory in the eleventh century.

The Church of Santa Maria Santissima Annunziata displays architectural elements from multiple periods, including a bell tower completed in 1615 with Apulian Romanesque features.

The town connects to major cities in Puglia through an extensive road network and public transportation system, facilitating easy access for residents and visitors.

The Sanctuary of Santa Maria della Grotta began as an eighth-century rock church used by Basilian monks before evolving into a Benedictine abbey serving crusaders.
