In the new town, you might take a stroll around the pedestrianized main axis, Corso Mazzini, and Piazza Bilotti to see half a dozen open-air sculptures by the likes of Dalí, De Chirico and Pietro Consagra, part of a bequest that makes up the Museo all’Aperto Bilotti, or MAB. At the top of the old town, the mainly thirteenth-century Castello Svevo affords excellent views over the city and occasionally holds exhibitions and concerts.
