The Villa for sale is in Santa Maria di Leuca

Santa Maria di Leuca is located 130 kilometers from the Airport of Salento, in Brindisi, and 90 kilometers from Lecce.

At the extreme tip of Puglia and Italy stands Santa Maria di Leuca. The promontory of Leuca has ancient origins. In fact, research has confirmed that this territory was frequented by the Neanderthal man. Testimonies of his passage have been found in the caves of the Devil, the Giant and the Child.

In addition, also in Santa Maria di Leuca, there was a village dating back to the Bronze and Iron Age located in the area of the current Sanctuary. Long before there was a pagan temple dedicated to the goddess Athena, the Minerva of the Romans, of which the historian Strabo also speaks. The temple, in fact, was visible by sailors even miles away, and it caused a certain fear. According to others, however, the pagan temple was the coastal sanctuary of Grotta Porcinara, still present in Leuca, but guarded behind a grate that prevents access.

The lighthouse of Santa Maria di Leuca and the monumental waterfall 

Leuca is also famous for the Lighthouse of Santa Maria di Leuca in its 48.6 meters. Located 102 meters above sea level on the promontory of Punta Meliso. Its beam of light, in optimal weather conditions, is visible even over 40 kilometers. Going down from the promontory of Punta Meliso, through a double staircase that goes up to the old fishermen’s port, you walk along the Monumental Waterfall of the Apulian Aqueduct, the precise point where the Aqueduct ends.

Since 2015 the waterfall is equipped with an artistic lighting system and is opened with regular appointments that represent a fascinating and evocative show for all tourists on holiday in Salento.

The 19th century villas of Leuca 

The seafront of the tourist village of Santa Maria di Leuca, is characterized by the famous and flamboyant nineteenth-century villas. They were built by the nobles who spent their holidays here. They are distinguished by the different architectural styles, shapes and colors. These are over forty beautiful noble villas.
