Realmonte, Municipality in Province of Agrigento, Sicily, Italy
Realmonte is a municipality in the Province of Agrigento, Sicily, with several distinct neighborhoods including Lido Rossello, Gelonardo, Scavuzzo, Punta Grande, and Pergole. Each of these areas serves the local population and attracts visitors with its own character and amenities.
The municipality was established in its current form in the 17th century and later enriched by discoveries of Roman occupation in the area. Excavations revealed a Roman villa with fine marble work, showing that people have lived here since ancient times.
The main Piazza Vecchia is where locals gather in the shade to enjoy traditional Sicilian drinks and spend time together throughout the day. This square shapes the rhythm of community life and reflects how people here connect with one another.
The different neighborhoods are spread across the municipal area, allowing visitors to explore various sections and their particular features at their own pace. It is helpful to visit each area to experience the local services and what each part has to offer.
Extensive salt mines run beneath the municipality and continue to operate as an active industrial site today. Visitors occasionally have the chance to explore these underground tunnels and see this hidden industrial landscape firsthand.
