Fasano (Italian pronunciation: [faˈzaːno] Barese : Fasciànë comune Province of Brindisi , Apulia , southern Italy . It is the second most populated town in the province after Brindisi , with a population in 2021 of 39,026.
History [ edit ]
According to a folk etymology , the name Fasano derives from the "Faso", a large wild columbus dove (also represented on the civic coat of arms) which drank from the fogge , which was a type of swamp or pool in the open air formed from the water that flowed down from the surrounding hills. This area where the pool once was is now a communal garden.
Via Appia , the road from Brindisi to Rome during ancient times, runs along Fasano's costal frazioni , including Savelletri and is visible today.
Geography [ edit ]
Fasano marks the border between the Salento and the Metropolitan City of Bari . It is about 50 kilometres (31 mi ) from all three of the provincial capitals in Apulia, namely Bari , Taranto and Brindisi.
The municipality borders Alberobello (BA Cisternino , Locorotondo (BA ), Monopoli (BA ) and Ostuni .[3] frazioni Speziale , Torre Canne and Torre Spaccata.
Fasano is situated in an area with olive trees and its territory extends from hills to the sea with rich Mediterranean vegetation.
Coming down from hills the town of Fasano occupies a dominant position in the valley which then leads down to the sea: coastal resorts include Savelletri with its beaches, the archaeological digs at Gnatia and a golf course and the quaint fishing town of Torre Canne . The coast is characterized by a peaceful atmosphere that prevails despite growing tourism.
Around Fasano are Pezze di Greco, Montalbano, Speziale and Pozzo Faceto, centres of secular olive cultivation; and a range of medieval fortified masserie , or farmhouses, aimed at agricultural tourism.
