On a coastal Adriatic route with splendid beaches and coves, a few kilometres from Polignano al Mare, is where one can find Monopoli, also known as a City of one hundred districts.

The City's name derives from the Greek monos (only) and polis (city), referring to the solitary Peuceta City of Dirium or Dyria.
The foundation of Monopoli was by the inhabitants of Egnazia, who were escaping after devastation by the Ostrogoths of Totila, during the Greek-Gothic War (535-553 AD).
