Noci

Noci, built around a medieval nucleus on Apulia’s limestone Murge plateau, grew into a compact town of narrow lanes and enclosed courtyards known locally as gnostre. Its historic centre retains this close-knit layout, while the surrounding countryside opens into fields, woodland and farmsteads shaped by the karst terrain of the Murgia. Noci stands on the edge of the Valle d’Itria, where conical trulli form part of the region’s rural building tradition. The Abbey of Madonna della Scala, a Benedictine complex founded in the 17th century, is one of its principal religious landmarks. Local life is closely tied to Apulian olive oil, cheeses and seasonal produce. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Apulia.
