The Luxury Ancient Palace is located in Giuggianello
With its 1150 inhabitants, Giuggianello is the least populated municipality of the province and the Salento peninsula. The village is just under 37 km from Lecce, 14 km from Otranto, 41 km from Gallipoli and Santa Maria di Leuca.
In ancient documents the house is called Juianellum. The etymology could derive from “Giuggiola”, supposing that in the past there was a vast estate of Giuggili trees . More likely is the hypothesis that the name derives from Joannellum, from the Latin Giovannello (little John) to which is also attributable the Cave of San Giovanni (Joanni).
The territory was inhabited since the Neolithic Age as evidenced by the archaeological finds found in the cave of the Madonna della Serra and the numerous megalithic monuments scattered in the countryside (dolmen, menhir, etc.). The farmhouse of Giuggianello was born in the ninth century and developed following the destruction of the nearby Muro Leccese, which occurred in 924 by the Saracens. The Murese refugees, fleeing from their city, settled there, resulting in a significant demographic increase. In 1827 Giuggianello was a small town of about 600 inhabitants, whose population was exclusively devoted to agriculture.
To visit in the center of the small village, we have the Mother Church of Sant’Antonio Abate, dating back to 1781. The Church of the Madonna Assunta Church of the Madonna della Serra. On the territory there is a crypt dedicated to Saint John the Baptist, of Byzantine origin, dating back to the X-XI century. The Castle of the Lubelli is a small castle-tower that, in times of looting and disorder, offered refuge to the population and its furnishings.
In Giuggianello there are some of the megalithic monuments of the province of Lecce, such as Menhir Polisano, Croce Caduta or Quattromacine. And the Dolmen Stabile and the Ore. Of important botanical interest is the garden “La Cutura”, located near the homonymous district. It is home to numerous plant species from all over the world. The most important and evocative section is the one that houses about 2000 specimens of succulent and tropical plants originating from Mexico, the countries of Africa and Latin America.
