Andria

Andria​


The city of Andria is a co-capital city of the Province of Barletta Andria Trani with a population of 99,671 inhabitants.

Standing at an elevation of 151 metres above sea level, it covers a total area of 403 km² and lies 55 kilometres north west of Bari, the regional capital of Puglia.

With its population touching a hundred thousand, Andria is one of the biggest cities in Puglia but attracts relatively few visitors. The main sight in Andria itself is the 12th century Cathedral. 
The Cathedral is located in the city's historic centre (Centro Storico) although most of the city has a very modern feel to it. Aside from the Catehdral, the nearby Chiesa di San Francesco is another church that merits attention but it's Castel del Monte, the UNESCO World Heritage Site just south of the city that attracts most visitors to the immediate area. ​

​Andria's train station is situated in the modern area of the city, a 14 minute walk (1 km) from the Centro Storico (Historic Centre). Train services from Andria are however quite limited, and it's often best to take a bus to reach your desired destination. The bus ride north to Barletta takes 18 minutes and from there you can find your way to Puglia's major cities.

By car from Andria to Bari takes 56 minutes (61 km), while journey times and distances to Puglia's other provincial capitals are as follows: Barletta - 22 mins (12 km), Trani
 - 25 mins (14 km), Foggia - 1 hour 4 mins (82 km), Taranto - 1 hour 40 mins (141 km), Brindisi - 1 hour 55 mins (174 km) and Lecce - 2 hours 17 mins (207 km).

The most convenient airport for Andria is 
Bari Karol Wojtyla Airport which is a 41 minute drive away (50 km) while the best alternative is  Brindisi Salento Airport, 1 hour 51 minutes by car (169 km).

​
