Lecce's duomo is located in a square that is almost completely closed...you will also find the bishop's palace, old seminary and bell tower there...looks amazing lit up at night.

When we turned into the Piazza we were taken aback by the beauty of this place. The church, tour and all the beautiful buildings and statues. A lovely place to see.

Beautiful city to walk about. Many ancient churches and palaces and of course wonderful food. Shops all close at 1 pm each weekday until 5.30 so beware if you are going for the shopping.
