Altamura casale zona via vecchia buoncammino

The cluster is in the Murge uplands, with the Alta Murgia plateau and its limestone steppe, karst terrain and broad cereal fields within the local radius. Alta Murgia National Park lies around Altamura. Gravina in Puglia, with its ravine landscape, is nearby within the same upland system. Altamura is itself a substantial town with a cathedral, a large historic centre and full daily services. The area is known for Pane di Altamura and for prehistoric finds including the Altamura Man in the local karst caves. Because the cluster is inside the built-up area of a city above 50,000 residents, the urban cap applies.
