Those small agricultural working communities, strategically located around an old riverside, gradually came together eventually merging to form the basis for today\u2019s districts of Aja Piccola and Monti. The communities grew very slowly and were still so small in the 1300s, however, that the land was thought to be uninhabited; a label that would prove rather useful and fortunate for the new feudal lord.<\/p>\n<p>The first Count of Conversano was granted feudal rights over the land in the 14<sup>th<\/sup> century as a reward for his highly valued service in the Crusades. And he was clearly a rather clever and inventive landlord quickly realizing that there were financial benefits to be had in keeping his land designated as unoccupied, even if in practice there were people living there. The <em>Prammatica de Baronibus<\/em> laws he enforced would have a fundamental impact not just on his subjugated tenants but also on the architecture of the nascent village. Oh, and the Count managed to keep his tax bills down too with a bit of skillful jiggery-pokery and simple houses called trulli. So what are these legendary trulli and why are they so special?<\/p>\n<h2>The Trulli of Alberobello<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_26441\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26441\" style=\"width: 730px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/village-552082_1280-e1443525745853.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-26441\" src=\"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/village-552082_1280-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"puglia\" width=\"730\" height=\"548\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-26441\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alberobello<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Put simply, a trullo (plural trulli) house is a dry-stone circular hut with a conical roof. The houses are often whitewashed with dark grey roofs. And many also include mystical decorative designs set into their roof tiles or symbolic sandstone pinnacle stones topping off the cone-shaped gable. The houses are very pretty to look at, but it\u2019s their building technique, using carefully selected interlocking stones, that is most significant.<\/p>\n<p>The dry stone method has been employed in the Itria Valley of Puglia since prehistoric times and crucially uses no cement or mortar to fix the stones together. It also takes advantage of the building materials to hand in the landscape with the plentiful limestone giving the houses their characteristic pale white walls. Trulli are truly Puglian structures and unlike anything you\u2019ll see elsewhere in Italy.<\/p>\n<p>The name trullo comes from the Italianized form of the local dialect word for dry stone hut, truddu, and that in turn was influenced by the Greek word for dome or cupola. And the greatest concentration of trulli is in Alberobello thanks to the Count of Conversano. He realized that the dry stone huts could be classed as temporary accommodation because of their lack of mortar and therefore that he would have to pay fewer taxes on them to the government. And so from that day on, until 1797 when Alberobello gained its independence, anyone wanting to build on his feudal land could only build trulli.<\/p>\n<h2>Experience Alberobello\u2019s Beauty for Yourselves<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24459\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24459\" style=\"width: 730px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/le-alcove.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-24459\" src=\"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/le-alcove-1024x749.jpg\" alt=\"alberobello\" width=\"730\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/le-alcove-1024x749.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/le-alcove-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/le-alcove.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24459\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Le Alcove in Alberobello<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Today, the count\u2019s legacy lives on and the town boasts at least 1600 trulli houses spread out over two principal districts \u2013 Rione Monti and Pione Aja Piccola.
