Wine has defined San Severo's economy since at least the 13th century, when Frederick II encouraged viticulture across the Tavoliere delle Puglie, the vast plain stretching south from the Gargano promontory. Today San Severo DOC covers reds from Montepulciano and Sangiovese, whites from Bombino Bianco and Trebbiano, and a notable spumante. The town of approximately 51,920 inhabitants sits in the Province of Foggia and serves as the commercial centre for northern Puglia's agricultural hinterland.
Between the railway station on the Adriatic line and the baroque centre around Piazza Municipio, San Severo maintains a compact urban core. The Chiesa di San Severino, the Chiesa di Santa Maria della Pieta, and the 18th-century Palazzo de Ambrosio line streets that show both earthquake damage from 1627 and subsequent reconstruction. Federico II's influence extended beyond agriculture: the nearby Castel Fiorentino, where the emperor died in 1250, lies within San Severo's municipal boundaries.
Foggia is 35 kilometres south along the SS16 and by frequent regional trains, while the Gargano National Park begins about 40 kilometres to the northeast.
