Castelbuono Castle, a symbol of this small town in the Palermo hinterland. And it couldn't be otherwise, given its grandeur and the glorious history that ties it to the very life of Castelbuono even today. The castle was commissioned by the Ventimiglia family, one of the richest and most noble families in Sicily, whose ties are not only to the castle, but to the very existence of the town of Castelbuono. There is little information about the origins of Castelbuono, but we know that in 1269, King Charles of Anjou confiscated the feudal state of Geraci from the Ventimiglia family, forcing the then head of the family, Alduino, to find new accommodation for the inhabitants of his village. The settlement was married to Ipsigro, an ancient Byzantine farmhouse, which once stood where the center of Castelbuono stands today.

The Tower of the Marquis of Geraci was built in 1596 and served as a watchtower. It overlooks a rocky outcrop overlooking the Finale Ligure beach. The building now hosts temporary exhibitions.

Pollina – Mountain Biking Highlight in the Madonie Mountains Pollina is a worthwhile detour for mountain bikers in the Madonie Mountains. The historic mountain village sits atop a rocky plateau and offers breathtaking views of the sea and mountains. The climb is challenging but scenically magnificent – ideal as the destination for a panoramic tour. A short break in the village itself is worthwhile: narrow streets, the old castle ruins with a lookout tower, and the open-air theater made of natural stone make Pollina a real highlight. Tip: You can sample local specialties like manna in the cafés before plunging into the exhilarating descent.

Caccamo Castle is one of the largest and best kept in Europe
