Basilica di Santa Croce

Reviewed By GRS-SJS - Sebastopol, United States

Lecce is a true center piece of Baroque architecture. The Basilica a excellent example of this style. You really need to stand and study the building with your eyes as you would a piece of art.

Chiesa di Sant'Irene

Reviewed By Tillyman

The church of St Irene is actually simpler and thus more beautiful inside than many of the others in Lecce which are so overwhelming that eventually you have had enough of Baroque.
