Castle of Naro, Medieval castle in Naro, Italy

The Castle of Naro rises on a hilltop with square towers and thick stone walls overlooking the Agrigento province in Sicily.

First documented during the Angevin period between 1266 and 1285, the castle received its massive square keep under Frederick III of Sicily in the 14th century.

The castle exhibits a collection of nineteenth-century dresses that belonged to local noblewomen, representing the fashion heritage of Sicilian aristocracy.

The castle requires advance arrangements for visits, and local guides provide detailed tours of the fortress and its architectural elements.

The fortress walls witnessed a dramatic episode during the War of the Vespers when French occupants met their end at this location.
