San Cassiano

San Cassiano is best known within Apulia for its setting in Salento, the peninsula between the Adriatic and Ionian seas. This small inland comune lies in the province of Lecce, amid the low limestone terrain and olive-growing countryside that characterize the region’s southern reaches. At its centre stands the Chiesa Madre, dedicated to San Leonardo Abate, a focus of local religious life. San Cassiano forms part of the historic Terra d’Otranto, the cultural area linking Lecce with the towns of southern Apulia. Its quiet streets provide a counterpoint to Salento’s coastal resorts and larger Baroque centres. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Salento.
