About Lecce
Lecce is a city you read with your eyes: honey-coloured limestone carved into balconies, church facades and hidden courtyards, with a craft tradition that still lives in the workshops behind the piazzas. Art and culture here sit as much in the streets as in the collections, which is why guided formats work so well — the Lecce: Walking Tour of Baroque Art and Craftsmanship unpacks the ornament and the artisans behind it, while the Lecce Papier-Mâché Tradition: Guided Walk & Creative Workshop takes you from the history of cartapesta to shaping it yourself.

Frequently asked questions
In Lecce much of the art is architectural and artisanal rather than confined to galleries. Baroque facades, Roman remains and working craft studios are part of the same story, so guided walks and hands-on workshops often reveal more than a conventional museum circuit.
