Manfredonia is a town and commune of the Gargano region of Puglia, south-east Italy, near the Adriatic coast. Manfredonia is a town with medieval origins and is known as the ‘daughter’ town of the ancient Greek Roman city of ‘Siponto’.
The city plan of Manfredonia dates back to the Swabians. Although the medieval walls were gradually demolished by the end of the 19th century or incorporated into new buildings constructed on the outskirts of the old town, the city still maintains the original plan.
Some of the main sights to explore in Manfredonia include Manfredonia Castle, a medieval castle built by the Swabians, finished under Charles of Anjou, and with a new line of walls built in the 15th century; the Church of San Domenico where the ruins of the chapel are in the style of the Swabians period of domination.
The nearby village and seaside resort of Siponto with its remarkable beach and sea is also an interesting place to visit.
The Italian island of San Domino lies in the Isole Tremiti Archipelago in the Adriatic Sea. There are five islands in the archipelago and they are San Domino, St. Nicholas, Cretaccio, Capraia and Pianosa, and collectively the islands form a commune of Italy's Province of Foggia and form part of the Gargano National Park. The island's can trace their history back to the Iron Age although in the Middle Ages the archipelago was ruled by the Abbey of Santa Maria a Mare (Holy Mary of the Sea) at San Nicholas island which is thought to have been founded in the 9th century by Benedictine monks from Montecassino.
The island's were used for the detention of political prisoners during Mussolini's Fascist regime. Today, the islands are an important tourist destination because of their crystal clear warm waters. Of the islands in the archipelago San Domino is the most developed island for tourism and has the only sand beach in the archipelago.
