The Church of Sant’Antonio, also known as the Trullo Church, was built in 1926, during a period in which Alberobello was undergoing a phase of modernization, but the design was strongly inspired by the tradition of the trulli. The church was built to serve the growing population of the town, which until then depended on the Mother Church of Alberobello, located in the upper part of the town.
Trulli are one of the first examples of insulating architecture. Their structure guarantees freshness during the summer and warmth in the winter, thanks to walls and roofs built dry with limestone blocks. Air chambers are created between the stones that regulate the internal temperature. The conical roof, built without supports, is composed of “chiancarelle” arranged in brackets in increasingly narrow circles, until they form a central opening.
The Rione Monti district, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is located on the southern hill of Alberobello and is home to over a thousand trulli. The area is crossed by fifteen streets and is located near Largo Martellotta, so called because of the three cisterns dug into the Eight hundred to collect rainwater.
