Among the patrons of Pulsano is Our Lady of the Martyrs, celebrated on 7 and 8 September. The town was liberated from Ottoman occupation only a year after the conquest, precisely on 8 September 1481, the day on which Pulsano celebrates Our Lady of the Martyrs in memory of the townspeople who died in that circumstance.
The town also holds Montedarena and the Parco Limongelli, as well as the Mother Church of Santa Maria La Nova.
