Extensive castle complex, used since antiquity and constantly expanded. The current structure of a fortress city dates from the 16th century. Located above Milazzo with fantastic views over the sea on both sides of the peninsula and, in good weather, as far as the Aeolian Islands.

A staircase that is a bit tiring to climb, which connects the beach of Piazza Antonia with Via Manica, but once at the top, it repays you for all the energy you spent with its breathtaking view!
