It is a pretty little square built in the early 1900s and restored in 2016, together withGiacomo Matteotti Square. Inside stands the statue of Domenico Cotugno, a ruvestine scholar and doctor. Furthermore, there is a graceful classic 1930s clock, once present in Giacomo Matteotti Square and now moved to Felice Cavallotti Square. Around it there are several bars and shops, as well as the presence of Testini Palace, one of the noble palaces of Ruvo.
Campanile della Cattedrale
Bell tower of extreme historical importance. 36.5 m (120.9 ft) tall, it is one of the distinctive symbols of the city's skyline. Much older than the cathedral, its construction dates back to the year 1000, and it was one of the main watchtowers of the medieval city.
Chiesa del Purgatorio
17th-century jewel in the historic centre. It doesn't have an interesting facade, but hides a breathtaking interior. To forget the reason is the beauty of the statue of the Pietà, which is also carried in procession on Holy Saturday.
Grotta di San Cleto
It is an archaeological area below the church of Purgatory. These are Greco-Roman ruins, where the so-called Cave of Saint Cleto is of exceptional value, or rather an ancient Roman cistern used by Saint Cleto (Saint Anacletus) the first bishop of Ruvo and third Pope in history, to take refuge from Christian persecutions.
Chiesa dei Santi Medici
Arco del Bacio
It is known as the kissing arch for its amorous decorations, which create a more exceptional setting than it already is.
Beautiful medieval arch. It does not present particular marvels on the side of Via Vittorio Veneto, but it presents a hidden marvel after passing it and turning the view back towards the arch. Between medieval decorations, ancient wooden windows and artistic compositions, you cannot miss it.
