Facing the Gulf of Manfredonia from the southern edge of the Gargano promontory, this Puglian port city of 56,932 residents was founded in 1256 by King Manfred of Sicily after the destruction of nearby Siponto by an earthquake and rising marshland. The Castello Svevo-Angioino, originally a Hohenstaufen fortress expanded by the Angevins, dominates the seafront and now houses the Museo Archeologico Nazionale with Daunic stelae dating to the 7th century BCE. San Leonardo di Siponto, a 12th-century abbey church 8 km south, preserves a Romanesque portal through which sunlight aligns at the summer solstice.
