The town of Salemi is a cross-section of Sicilian history. Founded by the Elimi people, this village then experienced the domination of all the populations that influenced the history of the island: from the Carthaginians to the Normans. The latter was responsible for the construction of the fortress that still dominates the city today: the Norman castle. In more recent times Salemi has played an important role in the expedition of Garibaldi's Thousand, freeing itself from Bourbon domination thanks to the initiative of a group of citizens led by Baron Giuseppe Triolo di Sant'Anna.

A country that is absolutely worth visiting, it was the first capital of Italy, even if only for one day.
