###SALEMI | SICILIA | 4K DRONE FOOTAGE###
Salemi, perched on a hill in the Belice Valley amidst the changing green of vineyards and olive groves, clusters around the Norman-Swabian Castle. The village, with its medieval feel, is located in the centre of the province of Trapani and is delightful with its polished streets of light-coloured stone, like the good living room of the house. The Most Beautiful Villages in Italy.
The ancient Halyciae, as the town was called, has experienced all the historical events of the oldest settlements in Sicily. From the Elymians onwards, it was inhabited by Greeks, Romans, Vandals, Goths and Byzantines, peoples so ancient as to be legendary, but it owes its current name to the Arabs, from the word Salam, which means peace.
The Arabs brought spices such as saffron, cloves and cinnamon, which were added to the lemons, oranges and peaches and the rich wild vegetation of the Mediterranean maquis, such as thyme and oregano. Hence the heady colours and scents that have made the land of Sicily so great and varied.
Salemi’s history can be retraced along the narrow streets of the Jewish quarter of Giudecca, the Islamic quarter of Rabato, through a visit to the Norman-Swabian Castle and the Madrice Vecchia (“Old Mother Church”), of which only a few vestiges remain. However, a visit to the Museum of Sacred Art in the former Jesuit College is not to be missed. Its wonderful rooms house a perfect and delightful reproduction of the House of Loreto, with frescoed vaults and statuary by Laurana and Gagini. The Museo del Risorgimento and the poignant Museo della Mafia are also worth a visit.
So much history has not passed in vain, leaving well-preserved and usable evidence in the archaeological areas of Mokarta, Monte Polizo and San Miceli, and in the Antica Fornace Sant’Angelo.
This fascinating heritage is now enhanced within the Salemi museum system, which encompasses all the town’s artistic, cultural and natural resources as if they were part of a single museum, as part of the broader and more ambitious Belice Museum Network project involving the entire Belice region.
Salemi still preserves the ancient tradition of devotional bread. During the religious festivals of Saint Joseph on 19 March, Saint Anthony the Abbot on 17 January and Saint Blaise on 3 February, extraordinary loaves of bread, veritable baroque architectures, are baked.
The confectioners and bakers of Salemi, as well as grandmothers, have the task of continuing the tradition and reintroducing the heady aromas of festive cuisine with the preparation of cudderedde and cavadduzzi (St Joseph’s and St Blaise’s breads).
But in these parts, the apotheosis of the Mediterranean diet is the busiata, a type of handmade pasta that is wrapped around a spindle (hence the name), to be enjoyed with various sauces.
Just a kite’s flight away from here, there are wonderful and evocative places such as Segesta and Selinunte, the island of Mothia, the Stagnone Nature Reserve, Marsala, Scopello, San Vito Lo Capo and Erice.

Museo della Mafia - Salemi - Borghi più Belli d'Italia
MAFIA MUSEUM
The museum has been thought by Vittorio Sgarbi when he was mayor of Salemi, but it was inaugurated by Giorgio Napolitano in 2010 during the 150th anniversary of the Italian unification. It is made up of 11 rooms where mafia is told through newspapers, literary works, cinematographic or television works. The museum logo, a blood drop with the shape of Sicily, was created by Oliviero Toscani. Ten micro-rooms tell the story of Cosa Nostra, the period of massacres, the urban abuses and the relationship with religion, politics, healthcare. Provocation is the way the story is told, through an emotional, sensorial and evocative path.
MUSEO DELLA MAFIA
Nato da un’idea di Vittorio Sgarbi quando fu eletto sindaco di Salemi, il museo venne inaugurato da Giorgio Napolitano nel 2010 in occasione dei festeggiamenti del 150° anniversario dell’unità d’Italia. Undici sale dove si racconta il fenomeno mafioso attraverso giornali, opere letterarie, cinematografiche, televisive. Il logo del museo, una macchia di sangue a forma di Sicilia, è di Oliviero Toscani. Dieci cabine raccontano la storia di Cosa Nostra, il periodo stragista, gli abusi edilizi e il rapporto con la religione, la politica, la sanità. Il tutto è raccontato attraverso la provocazione in un percorso emozionale, sensoriale ed evocativo.

It contains findings coming from the archaeological sites of Salemi area: Contrada Pitrazzi, Mokarta, Monte Polizo, old town centre, San Miceli. Objects of particular excellence are the tulip-shaped vases of the prehistoric town of Mokarta, the Capeduncola found in Monte Polizzo, and the golden earring with the lion’s head found near the Norman-Swabian Castle in Salemi.

We tried some of the most traditional local dishes and I shared all the tips in my videos so you can have a great experience just like we did!
In this video I share with you facts about the island, how to get in, what are the means of transport, what places you should visit, what is the best time of the year to travel to Sicily and more.
