Brindisi
Set on a peninsula between two arms of the Adriatic Sea, Brindisi was an important port of the Roman Empire and, later, for the East India Company. In the second century BC the Appian Way was built, linking the port to Rome, and a column near the harbor marks the end of that famous route. Here, in 71 BC, the gladiator Spartacus led thousands of rebel slaves in an unsuccessful escape. Today visitors will find Romanesque churches, a 13th century castle and, in the surrounding Apulia region, remains of ancient Messapian culture.
