Agricultural Land for sale in Uggiano la Chiesa
308 sq.m.
PUGLIA - SALENTO - Uggiano la Chiesa
In Uggiano la Chiesa, a characteristic town just 5 minutes by car from Otranto, we offer for Sale an Agricultural Land of approximately 308 square meters, on which there is a fascinating and characteristic underground oil mill.
The oil mill, probably dating back to the 16th century, represents a precious testimony to the olive oil tradition of the area. Dug underground to ensure constant temperature and humidity conditions, the hypogeum still preserves some original elements such as: the ancient stone millstones, the decantation tanks, the manual presses and the channels carved into the rock for collecting the oil.
These structures, once the beating heart of the local agricultural economy, were used for the cold pressing of olives, with an ingenious and fascinating system that exploited animal power and human labor.
The land, in addition to being productive and well-kept, lends itself to various uses, such as professional or amateur agricultural activities and cultural valorization of the mill as a museum, educational or artistic space.
In addition to being located just a few kilometers from the sea, Uggiano la Chiesa is 45 km from Lecce and 95 km from Brindisi Airport.
