Postcards from Lecce

Lecce

Lecce is an Italian city with 94,500 inhabitants and the capital of the eponymous province in Apulia.

The city is located almost centrally on the Salento peninsula, between the Adriatic and Ionian coasts. This makes it the easternmost provincial capital of Italy.

Thanks to its ancient Messapian origins and archaeological remains from the Roman era, Lecce is one of Italy's most important art cities. It is also known as the “Signora del Barocco” (Lady of the Baroque). The city stands out for the richness and exuberance of the 17th-century Baroque style, visible in the many churches and palaces in the historic center. These buildings are constructed from the local Lecce stone, a limestone that is particularly easy to work with.

Architectural development and the decorative details of facades received a particular boost during the Kingdom of Naples. This led to a unique style known as Lecces Baroque.

Moreover, Lecce is home to the University of Salento (formerly the University of Lecce) and was named the Italian Capital of Culture in 2015.

Lecce is een Italiaanse stad met 94.500 inwoners en de hoofdstad van de gelijknamige provincie in Apulië.

De stad ligt vrijwel centraal op het schiereiland Salento, tussen de Adriatische en de Ionische kust. Daarmee is het de meest oostelijk gelegen provinciehoofdstad van Italië.

Dankzij haar oude Messapische oorsprong en de archeologische resten uit de Romeinse tijd behoort Lecce tot de belangrijkste kunststeden van Italië. Ze wordt ook wel de “Signora del Barocco” (Vrouwe van de Barok) genoemd. De stad valt op door de rijkdom en uitbundigheid van de 17e-eeuwse barokstijl, zichtbaar in de vele kerken en paleizen in het historische centrum. Deze gebouwen zijn opgetrokken uit de lokale Lecce-steen, een kalksteen die zich bijzonder goed laat bewerken.

De architectonische ontwikkeling en de decoratieve details van gevels kregen vooral een impuls tijdens het Koninkrijk van Napels. Dit leidde tot een unieke stijl die bekendstaat als de Lecces-barok.

Lecce is bovendien de thuisbasis van de Universiteit van Salento (voorheen de Universiteit van Lecce) en werd in 2015 uitgeroepen tot Italiaanse hoofdstad van de cultuur.
