San Giuseppe Jato, Agricultural commune in Metropolitan City of Palermo, Italy
San Giuseppe Jato extends across 29.46 square kilometers of hilly terrain at an elevation of 463 meters in northern Sicily, 22 kilometers from Palermo.
The settlement originated from an ancient village on Mount Jato that flourished during Islamic rule until 1246 when Frederick II of Sicily ordered its demolition.
The September Festival of Grapes and Wine brings together local farmers to present their agricultural products, including corn, olives, and regional wines.
The municipality, governed by Mayor Rosario Agostaro, maintains administrative offices at Via Vittorio Emanuele 143, serving a population of 8,554 residents.
The modern town, established in 1779, received its current name in 1864 to differentiate it from San Giuseppe Vesuviano near Naples.
