The trulli are historical limestone dwellings now mostly converted into museums or boutique hotels, found in the southern Italian region of Puglia. Unesco inscribed them into their World Heritage List in 1996, describing them as “remarkable examples of drywall construction […] The trulli are made of roughly worked limestone boulders” collected from neighboring fields in the Murge plateau.

Typically, they feature pyramidal, domed or conical roofs. Trulli are found all along the Itria Valley, but the highest concentration is in Alberobello, where there are more than 1500 structures, including the best preserved examples of trulli.  Historically, they were used by farmers as temporary shelters or by small landowners as homes.
