Every Trullo house in Alberobello is beautiful, but this one has an even more unique shape, thanks to its joined two-cone roof. Inside, you'll only find a souvenir shop, but if you want to dive a little deeper into the uniqueness of this place, let's get to know the local legend attached to it.

The story says that two brothers fell in love with the same woman, who wanted to be with the younger one, although promised to the other. The three shared the Trullo house, but the older brother wanted to kick the two lovers out due to primogeniture. The young brother did not want to leave and asserted his rights to the inheritance, and so the Trullo was divided into two, each brother having his own entrance.

I love local legends, so even though this may seem like just another photo spot in Alberobello, its architecture and this intriguing story truly make it one of a kind.
