Castello Normanno-Svevo, located in Bari, Italy, is a historic fortress that dates back to the 12th century. Originally built by the Normans under the rule of Roger II, the castle was later reconstructed and expanded by Emperor Frederick II of the Holy Roman Empire in the 13th century, hence the "Svevo" (Swabian) part of its name. The structure features a blend of Norman, Swabian, Angevin, and Aragonese architectural elements, reflecting the various cultural influences that have shaped its history. Today, the castle houses a museum and is used for cultural exhibitions, offering visitors a glimpse into the region's rich past.
