places of Salento / Barbarno Cape

Also this Sunday we are left to chase the history, culture and tradition through the streets of the "southern Salento" a few kilometers from the end of the mainland. Barbarano Cape village of about 952 inhabitants, is within the administrative boundaries of the City of Morciano di Leuca.

This small town is nestled in the valley of Falitte Serra and Serra Montesardo near mouths of two deep karst known locally as Big Vora and Vora Small.

The origins of the country go back to the destruction of the ancient city of messapica Veretum, which occurred during the fierce Saracen raids of the ninth century AD, its name probably derives from the village of "barbaric" because the inhabitants of the town of survivors Patù (Veretum), refuge in the hilly hinterland and protected by dense vegetation, kept alive the memory of that unfortunate destruction in the name of Barbara.

The strong wind that creeps and covertly fill those empty architectural characterized by coverage of a vault, seems to whisper the story of the bucolic and monumental situm the Sanctuary of Santa Maria di Leuca Belvedere, better known as Little Leuca. Not far from the center of the town, dominated by sixteenth-century castle and high, square tower of Capece (last feudal lords), we admire on Pilgrims Way, ie that the mystical path that led up and leads to more known Sanctuary of Santa Maria di Finibus Terrae, the "sacred complex of the Belvedere." The square where the church stands in front of the structures that were used for the shelter of the pilgrims and animals, is named after St. Lazarus, the joint architecture, however, was built at the behest of Don Annibale Capece during the seventeenth century to meet those "travelers from the shell on his chest" that stopped, prayed and rested before returning, at dawn, the liberating path of forgiveness "in the arms of the "Lady" di Leuca.

The titulus of the Church derives from the fact that from its terrace, accessible by a ladder, you can see the "lookout" and in particular is emerging along the infinite horizon line on the last Lighthouse Leuca, the Church of Belvedere single hall, preceded by a portico (in greek temple, space between the columns and the front part of the cell Templar) with three arches on the facade main features architectural renaissance around the sacred building instead, they get up the remains of the feeding of horses, the mill wine and other care facilities, carved into the rock as underground wells and votive niches.

On the side of the church a large pointed arch, overlooking the ancient land where fairs were held, here we can see the ruins of an inn where he had placed a sheet on which were portrayed the 10 P signifiers: " little words worth considering bringing this information before think then talk ", ie rudimentary but acute food for wisdom.
