Masseria Cinti

In the hinterland of Idruntino a chain of farms, fortified farms and castles, towers and defensive works such as walls and ditches guaranteed the security of the territory.

Masseria Cinti, as an ancient farmhouse in Salento, has a series of highly suggestive environments: rooms with barrel and star vaults, with ancient fireplaces and deep sylos which once housed oil and other foodstuffs.

"It is said that in these silos, covered by a large stone, wheat and other cereals are kept for a long time without ever being damaged" noted a Swiss traveler visiting the Otranto area in the 16th century.

The place has a magic given by history and nature. Its small hills, the gently rolling countryside is covered by a sea of ??ancient olive groves with trees that are real monuments. A few steps away, the hill of the Sanctuary of Montevergine shows all the beauty of the Otranto Riviera.
