I trulli più antichi che troviamo oggi ad Alberobello risalgono al XIV secolo: fu in quel periodo che ciò che appariva, ormai, come una terra disabitata venne assegnata al primo Conte di Conversano da Roberto d'Angiò, principe di Taranto e poi re di Napoli dal 1309 al 1343. L'appezzamento di terra costituiva il premio del nobile rampollo angioino per i servigi resi durante le Crociate. La zona venne quindi popolata di nuovo, spostando interi insediamenti dai feudi vicini come quello di Noci. Secondo alcune ricerche, tuttavia, già verso l'anno Mille sorsero degli insediamenti rurali da entrambe le parti del fiume che adesso scorre sotterraneo. Le abitazioni a poco a poco si accorparono fino a formare dei veri e propri villaggi, in seguito soprannominati Aja Piccola e Monti. La costruzione a secco, senza malta, dei trulli, venne imposta ai nuovi coloni di modo che le loro abitazioni potessero essere smantellate in fretta: un metodo efficace per evitare le tasse sui nuovi insediamenti imposte dal Regno di Napoli e di certo anche buon deterrente per i proprietari riottosi. La maggior parte degli storici tuttavia concorda che questa tecnica edilizia fosse dovuta, innanzitutto, alle condizioni geografiche del luogo, che abbondava della pietra calcarea utilizzata nelle costruzioni. A metà del XVI secolo l'area di Monti era già occupata da una quarantina di trulli ma fu solo intorno al 1620 che Alberobello acquisì la fisionomia di un insediamento indipendente dalla vicina Noci, arrivando a contare circa 3500 persone verso la fine del XVIII secolo. Nel 1797 il villaggio ottenne dal Re di Napoli Ferdinando IV di Borbone il titolo di città reale. Il nome attuale deriva dal latino medievale della Regione, “silva arboris belli”.
