We came unexpectedly, and the friendly gentleman showed us everything from the tombs to the overcrowding and told all history, pure private guidance. Thank you very much, worth seeing in this small town

The last time we visited Bisceglie (some 9 years ago) the cathedral was closed for renovation. This time we arrived just as the cathedral was closing (for lunch what else)? but the custodian, whose name we did not get, very kindly stayed behind to give us a very personal tour of this church. As we both are volunteers in Winchester Cathedral we are interested in Romanesque churches such as San Pietro. This particular church is a few years older than Winchester but the build similarities were quite clear to us. It is a very small church but full of interest and the custodian, when he found out why we were interested, became quite enthusiastic. Well worth a visit if you are in town, it can be found in the old quarter and could be difficult to find if you aren't sure where you are in town. We were lucky but don't try and visit over the lunch and siesta hours!
