Maglie

Set inland from the coast, Maglie has long functioned as a cultural and social centre within Salento. Its historic palaces, workshops and theatres reflect its role as a place of exchange, education and craftsmanship. Less influenced by coastal tourism, Maglie preserves a strong local identity expressed through daily routines, working spaces and long-established institutions. Streets and squares remain stages for daily life, shaped by local rhythms, embedding culture into everyday life. Walking through Maglie offers insight into a Salento experience from within, where community life, knowledge and tradition are woven into daily practice, shaping a town that remains deeply connected to its territory and people. Maglie is just 10 minutes away by car from Masseria Furnirussi, along local roads through the Salento countryside.
