This characteristic village combines architecture, history, and nature. Its origins date back to around 500 AD, but some archaeological finds testify that the territory was inhabited even in pre-Roman times. The history of the small town, which has just over two thousand inhabitants, can be breathed at every step. The heart of Pollutri is the fortified village in the highest part of the town, with arcades, passages, staircases, and alleys. Although the facades of the houses were modernized between the 17th and 19th centuries, cellars and undergrounds preserve an ancient, mysterious, and fascinating identity. Visiting Pollutri In addition to observing the beauties of the fortified village, visiting Pollutri means admiring many examples of ancient Christian architecture. Piazza della Chiesa is home to the church of Santissimo Salvatore, dating back to the 14th century. Abbot Pacichelli, in 1703, also spoke of the existence of a cusp-pointed bell tower. Currently, the church has a neo-Romanesque facade. The monastery of San Barbato, founded in 1015, also existed in ancient times, and its original fountain has been found. Remains of the Church of Santa Lucia, property of San Barbato, are also visible, near which votive terracotta fragments dating back to the 3rd-1st century BC have been found. The Bosco di Don Venanzio In the territory of Pollutri, there is the Bosco di Don Venanzio guided natural reserve, a protected area established in 1999. With its approximately 78 hectares located 5 kilometers from the sea, it is one of the last plain forests on the Adriatic coast. The Bosco offers a solemn and enchanting atmosphere, with a series of river terraces overlooking the Sinello. In Pollutri, nature, tradition, and the present blend into an environment suspended in time, where ancient arts such as embroidery, lace making, and bobbin lace are still alive. The cuisine is also typical of the Medio Vastese, with 'ndroccioloni' (homemade pasta), the award-winning Ventricina cured meat, wine tarallucci, and bocconotti.
