Alberobello (BA)
Alberobello is a city in Puglia, Italy. It is known for the Trulli, white conical stone buildings, present by the hundreds in the hilly district of Rione Monti. The 18th century Trullo Sovrano is a two-level trullo. The "Casa Pezzolla" Territory Museum exhibits furnishings and tools that recreate life in the Trulli as it was in the past. To the southwest of the city is the Red House, a World War II internment camp. The historian Pietro Gioia has conjectured that the name Alberobello derives from Silva alboris belli, with the meaning of "forest of the war tree" and this derivation, devoid of documentary confirmation, has long been endorsed by later historians. Later studies, however, underline that the first toponym by which the locality was known was Silva Alborelli: this is the result of the oldest document known to scholars, namely the investiture diploma of 15 May 1481 with which King Ferrante of Aragon he assigned the assets of the late Count of Conversano Giulio Antonio I Acquaviva d'Aragona to his illiterate son Andrea Matteo. This document reads Silva Alborelli in the province of our Terra Bari. The name Alberobello became official on 22 June 1797 by the first City Council and by choice of the local inhabitants. On this occasion, the names of Ferrandina were also proposed in honor of King Ferrante of Aragon and of Ferdinandina in honor of King Ferdinand IV of Bourbon. However, until the nineteenth century the alternative terms Arborebello or Albero Bello were also adopted.
