Masseria Fortificata e Ponte Romano di Cavallerizza a Deliceto

It is an elegant fortified farmhouse of the seventeenth century, built on the ruins of an ancient Roman tavern, on the edge of the street "Valeria Prima". It was built as a change station for horses and a place of refreshment for travelers, so until the 'I 700 was called "stable" (from "stabulum", place of stay and "torum", bed, bed). The current appearance dates back to the Bourbon period and when it began to be used for the breeding and training of horses: hence the current toponym.

The building is characterized by the entrance with light stone jambs and the staircase in river pebbles, bordered by wooden beams. It still retains elements typical of the defense of a fortification, such as the loopholes, commonly called the "saiettere". During some restoration works conducted by the property during the '800, the main body of the building was leaned against a tower colombaria. Here in 1863 there was an armed conflict between the band of Brigante Giuseppe Schiavone of Sant'Agata di Puglia and the militia of the Savoy Kingdom.

Near the farm and the stream carapellotto you can see the remains of an ancient water mill, as well as the ruins of a Roman bridge. The building now belongs to several owners and can be visited on request.
