Reaching Lercara Friddi to know it means to slowly discover, flying in the space and the time, a precious cultural, artistic and human patrimony.
The archaic rests of Madore Hill with its objects diligently exposed today in the Library Museum; the churches and the ancient palaces, witnesses of the passage of a cultured and rich bourgeoisie; the sulfur mines, whose reasts still smell of hardships and suffering; the rituals of the Saint Week and the cult for our Lady of Costantinopoli, expressions of a faith sometimes ascetic sometimes spanish; and again, the landscapes, the colors and the scents of the sweet urban planning, all of the above tell us of an alive country that on the past, with dignity, is building its future.
