Terlizzi

The commune extends across fertile plains at 191 meters elevation, featuring narrow streets, plazas, and agricultural landscapes north of Bari on the Adriatic Sea.

Documents from the 8th century mention Terlizzi when its Lombard owner transferred the territory to the Abbey of Montecassino before Byzantine control.

The Co-Cathedral of San Michele Arcangelo exhibits numerous wooden statues and paintings, representing the religious heritage of this Italian settlement.

Local farms maintain traditional agricultural activities, producing olive oil and wine while supporting the regional economy through small-scale industries.

The Norman clock tower, standing 31 meters high in the town center, houses the second largest clock in Europe after London's Big Ben.
