Art and CultureHistoric House and Palace, Troia

Palazzi Nobiliari di Troia

Walking along Via Regina Margherita, which is the main artery of the village, you come across many noble buildings, most enjoyable only from the outside.

In addition to the beautiful Palazzo D'Avalos, now home to the Town Hall and the Civic Museum, and the Palazzo San Domenico, former convent and now home to the Hospital del Cammino, they make a fine show of themselves: the Palazzo dei Gesuiti (or Tricarico), whose façade is distinguished by its diamond-pointed ashlar decoration and a window decorated with two lions, coming from a Benedictine monastery; Palazzo Antinozzi, with its majestic entrance portal; Palazzo Siliceo and Palazzo Varo, with its splendid courtyards.

The village

Troia

First Aika was a small settlement dedicated to hunting between the fourth and second centuries BC. Then it became Aece, located in the center of a dense road network (Egnathia, Appia-Traiana, Aecae-Sipontum) that connected Rome to the East via Apulia.
