The Grifeo castle is a medieval building located on the slopes of a hill on which what is now the city of Partanna developed. It is one of the best preserved castles in western Sicily and, after the restorations of 2003 and 2007, it is used as a venue for cultural events. Since December 28, 2007 it is the "Regional Museum of Prehistory of Belice - Center of interpretation and territorial enhancement". Its current appearance dates back to the 14th century and was commissioned by the Grifeo family from which it had taken its name and to which it belonged until 1890. But the history of the manor is much older: the Grifeo family obtained the territory from the Great Count Ruggero in the year 1091 built the castle.
