Panoramic View of Alta Murgia from the Medieval Fortress of Monteserico Castle

From the highest point of Monteserico Castle, this photograph offers a breathtaking view of Alta Murgia. The Norman fortress, built in the 11th century, dominates a vast territory characterized by cereal-cultivated hills that extend as far as the eye can see. The golden fields, interspersed with areas of spontaneous vegetation, create a natural mosaic of extraordinary beauty. In the foreground, the tracks left by agricultural vehicles are visible, tangible signs of human work on these lands. Monteserico Castle, one of the most important fortresses in Basilicata, offers this privileged observation point on the border between Puglia and Basilicata.
