This town is famous for its white Trulli houses with gabled roofs. You can see this type of building only here; it is found nowhere else in the world. The peculiarity of the construction is in its stacked stones. If you remove one, the house will quickly turn into a pile of rocks. The locals did this occasionally to avoid paying taxes. Although all the Trulli houses look similar, they are divided into male (with a dome) and female (without) groups. They also differ in the manner of laying tiles and craftsmen’s marks.
