Start the tour by visiting the majestic Basilica of Santa Croce, the jewel in the crown of Lecce's Baroque architecture. Then explore the nearby Piazza Sant'Oronzo, the former market square where the ancient town hall, the Roman column and the remains of a huge Roman amphitheatre stand. Continue with a stroll along Corso Vittorio Emanuele, which boasts a series of spectacular Baroque palaces and the recently renovated Church of Santa Irene. Then reach the beautiful Piazza Duomo next door, home to one of Italy's most popular buildings. Admire the Archbishop's Palace, the Seminary, the bell tower and the cathedral.
