In the heart of Polignano a Mare, overlooking the charming Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II and just a few steps from the Cathedral, stands the prestigious Palazzo dell'Orologio, a historic residence of rare elegance and architectural value. Of medieval origin, the building is one of the most fascinating testimonies of the town's history. Once serving as the seat of the 'Università' (local governing body), the palace is accessed through the famous Arco della Porta, an ancient gateway that until the 18th century was the only connection to the surrounding territory, originally crossed via a drawbridge. An iconic feature of the complex is the clock tower, once adorned with a sundial and now home to a precious rarity: a 19th-century public weight-driven clock. Crowning the structure is an ornamental pediment housing a niche with the statue of Saint Vitus, the patron saint of Polignano, while at the top stands an elegant bell gable that dominates the urban skyline. The property, approximately 170 sqm, is spread over multiple levels and benefits from several independent entrances, offering an extremely versatile layout. The uppermost level features a remarkable panoramic terrace with sea views, a privileged spot from which to admire sunsets and the unmistakable scenery of the historic center perched on the cliffs. A truly exceptional property, ideal both as a prestigious private residence and as an investment in the luxury hospitality sector. Its internal configuration allows for the creation of a boutique guesthouse, a charming BB, or an exclusive holiday home, perfectly integrated into the historic and touristic context of Polignano a Mare.
