Tips

Beyond the Horizon

October 16, 2024

A visit to Porta Garibaldi in Marsala is like a leap into the past. This imposing city gate, which once served as the main entrance to the city, bears witness to the region's turbulent history. It was here in 1860 that Giuseppe Garibaldi began his legendary march with the "thousand" soldiers to unite Italy. When you walk through the gate, you feel the historical significance of this place.

The fine stone carvings, the Latin inscriptions and the impressive coat of arms that sits on the gate are real eye-catchers. The saying "Dominus custodiat introitum et exitum tuum" - "The Lord guard your entrance and exit" - reflects the protective function of the gate.

A walk through the gate takes you straight into the lively center of Marsala, where cafes and shops line the narrow streets. The portal acts like a time machine: as soon as you walk through, modern life opens up, but you still have one foot anchored in the past.
