The view from above is wonderful.
At full hour you can experience the ringing of the bells up close.
Warning ⚠️ really loud.

Beyond the Horizon

October 16, 2024

King Frederick's Tower in Erice offers you an impressive view of the town, the sea and the surrounding islands. The steep stairs lead you up and the view from up there is really worth it. The bell that rings on the hour is particularly striking - an impressive experience, but be careful, it is really loud if you stand right next to it.

The clear view on nice days allows you to look far out into the landscape and out to sea. The combination of historical architecture and this breathtaking view makes for an intense experience that is best enjoyed in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the hustle and bustle.
