Welcome to Andria, where history and beauty meet to offer you an unforgettable experience. Our Hotel Cristal Palace, located in the heart of the city, is the ideal starting point for exploring one of the most fascinating treasures of Puglia: the Castel del Monte.
Castel del Monte: a Unique Masterpiece
A few kilometers from our hotel stands the magnificent Castel del Monte, a 13th century fortress built by Emperor Frederick II. With its octagonal shape and perfectly symmetrical towers, the castle is an extraordinary example of medieval architecture and engineering. The castle’s unique geometry reflects the founder’s profound mathematical and astronomical knowledge. Castel del Monte is shrouded in mysteries and legends. Some believe it was designed as a temple of learning, while others believe it was a hunting lodge.
Today it is recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, attracting visitors from all over the world fascinated by its history and design.
