Brindisi di Montagna used to be overlooked by its Castle, built around the XIII century and destroyed by a earthquake in 1694, of which only very little is left. The cultural heritage of this village is mostly in its old centre, with its churches and the ‘Municipio’, where some paintings by Donato Allegretti, an artist born in Brindisi, are kept.

In the Main Church of S. Nicola, built in the XIV century and rebuilt in 1595, there is an altar in multicoloured marble and behind the statue of S. Nicola can be found. On the right of the transept there is the wooden statue of the Madonna del Rosario, of the XVIII century, while on the left a canvas representing the ‘Madonna del Carmine’. In Brindisi there is also the beautiful Church of Maria Santissima delle Grazie (1595).

The ‘Parco della Grancia’, which has been created very recently, is an important attraction for tourists.
