Lonely Planet review for Obelisk

Just outside Porta Napoli, a commemorative obelisk recalls another Spanish overlord, Ferdinand I, King of the Two Sicilies. It was carved by local sculptor Vito Carluccio in 1822-26, and depicts panels of mythological and historical symbolism relating to Lecce, Taranto, Brindisi and Gallipoli, the four districts of the Terra d'Otranto.
