Historical Home - Historical Home in Otranto
Goditi una vacanza all'insegna dello stile in questo spazio in centro. Il Palazzo era sede del Consolato Veneziano sulla Via della Seta. Venezia, per ordine del Consiglio dei Dogi, mandò a Otranto una loro nobile famiglia che diventò il punto referente, a livello burocratico e amministrativo, per tutto il traffico delle navi che da Venezia andavano in Oriente e viceversa. Il Palazzo è stato recentemente oggetto di un restauro conservativo che lo ha riportato fedelmente al suo stato originario.
