The 1627 Gargano earthquake struck Gargano, southern Italy at about mid-day on 30 July 1627. A "very large earthquake" caused a major tsunami, the largest seismic event ever recorded in the Gargano region,[2] which "produced severe damage in the whole promontory", killing about 5000 people.[3] Four aftershocks were documented. The most extensive damage was noted between San Severo and Lesina.
