Donna Giulia B&B is located in Cursi, a small village set at 15 km far from Otranto and the Apulian coast. Noteworthy historians state that Cursi, of roman origin, was a stopping place for horses to serve the messengers/couriers who brought news and letters to the Regions located from Lecce southwards. These carriers were called "Cursores" from which the Latin name of the village comes from "Cursiomnnium" subsequently abbreviated to Cursi. The coat of arms portraying a heraldic carrier holding a batch of letters, confirm its historical origins. The most important religious and artistic sites in Cursi are: - The Byzantine Crypt of "San Giorgio" and "Santo Stefano" dating back to thirteen or fourteen century approximately. This fine building was discovered by chance in 1955.-The Chapel dates back to 1400, adjacent to the parish church, is consecrated to S. Nicola, patron saint of the village. -The Sanctuary, consecrated to "Maria SS. Dell'Abbondanza", which is not very far from the village, was built in 1648 by the inhabitants of Cursi. - The "Convento degli Agostiniani", with the precious altar by P. Buffelli dating back to the fifteenth century. |
