Italy – Brindisi Photogrammetry v1.0

Photogrammetry of Brindisi, located in Apulia, Italy. Brindisi is situated on a natural harbour, that penetrates deeply into the Adriatic coast. Main sights (all present in this scenery): The Aragonese Castle, best known as Forte a Mare (“Sea Fort”). It was built by King Ferdinand I of Naples in 1491 on the S. Andrea island facing the port. It is divided into two sections: the “Red Castle” (from the color of its bricks) and the more recent Fort. Two ancient Roman pillars, symbols of Brindisi. They were once thought to mark the ending points of the Appian Way, instead they were used as a port reference for the antique mariners. Only one of the two, standing at 18.74 metres (61.5 ft), is still visible. The Castello Svevo or Castello Grande (“Hohenstaufen Castle” or “Large Castle”), built by Emperor Frederick II. It has a trapezoid plan with massive square towers.
