Founded by the Greeks, its name reflects its position on a high, steep rock that juts into the sea, complemented by stunning sandy beaches. The town’s ancient centerpiece is its Cathedral, started in 1131, showcasing Norman architecture that is more accurately described as Sicilian Romanesque. Additionally, there are numerous churches and old palaces to explore.
- Castelbuono Paese in Provincia Di Palermo - The construction of the Castle began in 1316, commissioned by Count Francesco I of Ventimiglia, over the ruins of the ancient Byzantine town of Ypsigro, hence its original name, Castello del buon aere (Castle of good air). The Castle blends Arab-Norman features with elements typical of the Hohenstaufen rule in southern Italy, with its cube shape reminiscent of Arabic architecture. On the second floor, the opulent Cappella Palatina (Palace Chapel) was built in 1683 by brothers Giuseppe and Giacomo Serpotta, adorned with precious marble, stuccowork, putti, and friezes that celebrate the most splendid moments in the history of the House of Ventimiglia, which can be found throughout the town.
