Facts and practical information

The curate prepositura of St. James is one of the oldest churches in Barletta. At the time of its construction the church was located outside the city walls and was situated, in a strategic position, on the road to Canne. The present religious building is the result of numerous building superimpositions that occurred over the centuries and the urbanistic events that affected the ancient San Giacomo suburb in contemporary times.
