Rutigliano’s fame took root during the Byzantium Empire, above all in the
commercial sector which included the export of cereals to a number of cities of
the Eastern Empire; from 1435 to1860, until the Unification of Italy, it was
subject to the rule of the Aragonese and the Bourbons. Of particular interest,
there is the architectural heritage of the town, testified to by the presence of
many religious buildings, including the church Santa Maria della Colonna built
at about the end of the 11th century by Hugh the Norman, preserving inside the
polyptych by Vivarini.
In Battisti square, there is the Bugnata Tower (Byzantine-Norman), quadrangular
in shape and 34 metres high. It is also possible to admire: the Church of the
Immacolata, the Church of St. Anna which preserves a painting by Rosa from
Bitonto, the Church of the Carmine with the sculptures of St. Lorenzo and the
Church of the Madonna delle Grazie which houses some works by Miglioncino dating
back to the 19th century. Today, it is possible to admire some remains of both
the circle of walls which enclosed the historical centre and of the three
historical gates of entry to the town. The 16th century Palazzo Antonelli is of
particular interest, as is, 6 km away, the Church of Sant'Apollinare which is in
Byzantine style.
Rutigliano is characterised by the artsianship of ceramics and terracotta, in
particular for the fact that it preserves intact the production of whistles in
terracotta; according to an ancient popular tradition, the whistle has the
ability to keep away evil influences. On the first day of Carnival, on 17th
February, Rutigliano celebrates a special show of the whistle which is visited
by tourists and collectors. Rutigliano will offer you its hospitality and a warm welcome, as well as a wide section.
