Accessibility of this place
The data comes from on-site surveys. Where there is no survey, no judgment appears: we prefer to say we don't know rather than give you unverified information.

In the heart of Tricase, where the Town Hall is located today, stands Palazzo Gallone. Its Tower and the Torrione, dating back to the fourteenth century, are the oldest parts of the building, incorporated into the princely castle built in 1661 by Stefano Secondo Gallone, prince of Tricase. It was in the tower that the ancient prisons were located: two small cells whose walls are still entirely covered by the graffiti carved by the prisoners.
One can recognize ships with sails and rigging, perhaps a reminder of the Turkish raids that long threatened this coast, a row of owls with round eyes and various human faces, carved with a few essential strokes. Next to the images, names, dates, and brief greetings are also etched in the stone: the voice of those who, within those walls, waited.
Today, those marks remain the only testimony of that waiting, preserved in the walls that the Gallone princes inhabited for centuries.
