Altamura: A Dive into Millennia of History

Altamura's roots trace back to prehistory. The area became famous due to the discovery of the "Man of Altamura," a perfectly preserved Neanderthal skeleton from around 150,000 years ago, found in the Lamalunga cave.

However, Altamura is also a city with a strong medieval identity, built around its magnificent Federician Cathedral, commissioned by Emperor Frederick II of Swabia in the 13th century.

With our taxi service from Matera, you can immerse yourself in this fascinating journey through distant eras without stress.

What to See in Altamura

Visiting Altamura with Taxi Premium Matera, you can discover:

  • The Altamura Cathedral: One of the few cathedrals built directly by Frederick II, with a façade rich in Gothic and Romanesque details.

  • The Historic Center: A maze of narrow streets, hidden courtyards, ancient churches, and small hidden treasures.

  • The Archaeological Museum: Where you can admire important artifacts from the Neolithic and Bronze Age civilizations.

  • The Lamalunga Cave (virtual visits and guided tours): Where the Man of Altamura was found.

Every corner of the city tells an ancient story, brimming with culture.

Altamura Bread: A PDO Excellence

Altamura is synonymous with PDO bread. This extraordinary product is still made today using ancient methods, with local durum wheat, natural fermentation, and baking in wood-fired ovens.

During your tour, you can:

The Claustri: The Hidden Heart of the City

One of the most fascinating features of Altamura is the "claustri": small internal courtyards around which the medieval houses were built. Each claustro tells a story of community, protection, and shared life.

Walking through the claustri of Altamura is like traveling back in time. And with our premium taxi service, you can choose how much time to dedicate to each visit, with total freedom.
