Amazing ceiling fresco in Huge abandoned italian mansion Salento with love

As we continued our tour of the town of Corigliano d'Otranto, we came across a huge abandoned italian mansion just begging to be visited. With Davide at the helm we entered to discover a beautiful courtyard with an immaculate stair entrance to the upper level where we would uncover its long lost beauty.
The lower floor once being a bank and the upper floor a residence to a well to do family of the past came equipped with its own chapel with frescoes in nearly every room. This is just one of the things that makes Salento a hidden gem within the world reknowned beauty of Italy.

What a day!! The building is amazing, door was open and I’m sure I heard I voice saying, come up boys 💫🙏 Love this town, so much beauty and heritage.

[@DauvO]

Was that what that voice was? 🔑 Maybe they opened the door when they saw the camera in the piazza 😃

[@lzrd8460]

That chapel alter is incredible! I love how excited the S. W/ Love guy is getting as he discovers more & more in this palazzo! That would be the kind of estate agent I would buy an Italian house from!

This property is spectacular! It would be an absolute dream to wander through and imagine what was and what could be. As an occasional historic property trespasser myself, I believe it is more expedient to politely ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission. Bravo!

[@lisazochert3465]

Breathtaking. The alter, the portal surrounds, the columns, all of it really. I love to imagine the daily life of people who lived during that time in the area. Like Davide and yourself, I would/could spend hours looking in amazement at the architecture. I am absolutely fascinated by the history of it all. Between you and Davide, that I've decided that Puglia is probably where we will eventually settle for a second home.

[@sheilatorres4802]

DauvO, regarding the altar, the altar stone would cover saints' relics. Every Catholic altar in the world has relics in the altar.

[@DauvO]

Do you mean the floor area? It up in the altar itself?

[@sheilatorres4802]

@@DauvO In the alter itself. Remember, you pulled up a cement piece from the middle of the altar. Under that is where the relics would be stored. After relics are placed, the area is then sealed permanently. So when the house was abandoned, and probably much before, the stone was removed and the relics taken out.

[@sheilatorres4802]

By the way, I love your videos. I have been to Italy five times, the latest time two years ago. It is my most favorite place on earth. I was engaged to a gentleman in Ancona, but that is a long story! I studied Intensive Italian at Ohio State University, ma cinque ani fa!

In one of you videos you mentioned the contamination problem near one of these towns. I don't remember the name off the town. please Something sounded like Toronto. Please remind.

I think you are referring to Taranto. There is a huge industrial plant on the west side of town. In the past they had issues with pollution, I know a lot of people had to move away due to job loss, but I think much of that area is still being used... I've driven by twice this year and there are these two giant buildings that I believe are canopy's to cover powder materials

[@sylvievicenza179]

Last summer I took a old dirty electric fan in the garbage. Long story short in the evening there where 2 carabinieri that came to our place and told us we needed to be at there office at 9am. I got assigned a lawyer and was going to have to go to the tribunal. I thought it was so stupid. The carabinier I told me (kind of yelling) that they did not have in there law a sentence that would say we are closing our eyes do not do this again. FINALLY I receive a letter from the tribunal telling me my case was dismissed. Honestly Italy had other fish to fry. I am 60 and now am a bit scared when I see the carabinieri. Be careful!

[@DauvO]

I understand, I've had more run ins with them than I would like to admit. Stupid things that could have been avoided with a better understanding of Italian. I understand what you mean though. Thanks for sharing your story!

[@francosei1]

We do the "differentiated, my dear!

[@GiuseppeLeopizzi]

So, two "carabinieri" would have come to your house, would have asked you to show up at the police station at 9 am and even disputed a crime (which one?) Later filed by the "public prosecutor"? For a broken and dirty fan ?! To be 60 you still have a lot of imagination. Surely there is to worry about the Carabinieri, who however do not deal with waste and certainly in Italy we do not send the Carabinieri to people's homes - they have much more to do - for a refusal in the wrong place, but a very high fine to pay within 30 days it will surely arrive, by mail.

"Unauthorized access to the funds of others referred to in Article 637 of the Criminal Code" Lol, the door was open to the maximum you would have caught a groomed from the local police. However this is one of the reasons why I advise my foreign friends to take a look at the historic buildings from the inside (when possible), also because from the outside some seem anonymous.

[@DauvO]

Those historic buildings are probably more frequent that I can even imagine. It seems like they only get used as museums and art centers. This would make for a really nice work ambiance if not at least a private residence where someone could enjoy its beauty and share it with others!

I've seen places like this for sale in poorer conditions for 350,000. I'd guess 450,000 minimum, but you'll see them listed up to 1,000,000. My guess is 750k if the lower floors were sold separately.

There have been a few comments hereIn regarding you guys taking the liberty of wandering around inside a property belonging to someone else with no permission from the owner(s). I've seen other videos you've made Dauvo, wherein you have personally expressed a reluctance to do anything which would disrespect the privacy of others in such a way. Perhaps you should reflect more maturely upon what kind of influence your new-found colleague is having upon you. It's really not a good direction. Despite the dubious thrill some viewers seem to get from this, It devalues your obvious integrity.
