"Die Stadt ist vor allem durch ihre Kegelbauten (Trulli) (Einzahl Trullo) berühmt, die nach dem Vorbild der Bauweise von Hirtenhütten in dieser Gegend gehäuft entstanden. In Alberobello bestehen ganze Stadtteile aus Trulli. Darum gehört der Ort heute zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe, hat aber durch den Touristenansturm viel von seinem ursprünglichen Reiz verloren.
Trulli gibt es nicht nur in Alberobello selber, sondern auch im Umland, doch in Alberobello treten sie massiert auf. Trulli sind zumeist runde, aber auch auf rechteckigem Grundriss errichtete, weiß gestrichenen Bauten mit charakteristischen Kegeldächern Kalksteinplatten, die ohne Mörtel in Form eines falschen Gewölbes aufeinander geschichtet sind. Diese Bauweise gleicht in gewisser Weise den urtümlichen Wohnbauten der Menschheit, wie man sie auch an anderen Orten rund um das Mittelmeer findet, z.B. in Sardinien in Form der Nuraghen oder in Südfrankreich als Bories." - Quelle: Wikipedia

"The city is mainly due to their Kegelbauten (Trulli) (singular Trullo) famous that arose frequently modeled after the design of shepherds' huts in the area. In Alberobello there are whole neighborhoods of Trulli.'s Why the city is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but lost by the tourist influx much of its original charm.
Trulli in Alberobello there are not only themselves, but also in the surrounding areas, but they occur in Alberobello massaged. Trulli are usually round, but built on a rectangular ground plan, whitewashed buildings with conical roofs characteristic limestone plates that are stacked without mortar in the form of a false vault together. This design is similar in some ways the primitive dwellings of mankind, as they are also found in other places around the Mediterranean, as in Sardinia, in the form of nuraghi or in southern France as Bories "- Source:.
