Morgantina, Villa del Casale, Piazza Amerina, Gresti Castle

A magical silence surrounds Morgantina, on the slopes of the Erei Mountains. A city still intact after 3.000 years. Many of the city’s precious archeological findings are housed in the Museum of Aidone.

In close proximity is the Norman castle, Castle of Gresti which dominates the Valley of Gornalunga and finally Villa del Casale at Piazza Amerina. Built in the 3rd and 4th century A.D., its extraordinary mosaics are the finest examples of there kind in the world. The Villa, through its mosaics in each room takes us on a journey through the daily lives of the nobility of the time and houses the famous ‘Bikini Girls’ in the Hall of the Female Gymnasts.
