 The origins of the small town dating from the second half of the XVI century, when, small feud under the domain of Acquaviva, accounts of Conversano, began to area of peasants which rendered La Selva (so called) fertile. The accounts first settlers to build housing in the dry, so that they can be there in the case of inspection Regia, since the birth of a conurbation demanded payment of the charge in accordance with the pragmatic de baronibus; with the cunning proposal is avoided the tax.It was the year 1797 and a group of courageous alberobellesi, tired of precarious condition, traveled to Taranto to ask aid to the King Ferdinand IV of Bourbon listened and promise. 27 may 1797 the king issued a decree by which the small village became free. The history of Alberobello is linked closely to its buildings, the Trulli, buildings very special is linked to an edict of the Kingdom of Naples that in the XV century underwent a tribute each new urban settlement. The accounts of Conversano, owners of the territory on which rises today Alberobello, imposed then sent to the farmers in these lands to build, in dry, without using Malta, their homes, so that they could be seen as construction precarious, easy demolition. So we have only use stones, farmers found in the form round with roof to dome self-supporting, composed of circles of stones superimposed, configuration more simple and solid. The dome roof of the Trulli pinnacles are embellished with decorative, the form is inspired by symbolic, mystics and religious. They were made by Maestranza taken for the construction of Trullo and identified the craftsman. The quality of the invoice of Pinochle could therefore identify not only the dexterity craft of the manufacturer, but also the value of the building. A greater expenditure in the construction of Trullo allowed to identify therefore, the more wealthy households from the less affluent. As regards the symbols painted above the roofs of the Trulli often play a religious significance; sometimes may be signs of the zodiac. Pinochle and symbol painted together formed a sort of civic identifier, because for a long time Alberobello has seen denied official recognition from part of the accounts of Conversano. From 1996 Alberobello was considered heritage of humanity. Of particular historical value-environment is the monumental area of the Trulli, THE HAGUE small house with pezzolla, home of love and the Trullo Sovrano. In this environment are grown from childhood and I trained to local ITA, specialized in livestock and dairy. |
