Bagheria plus

In Bagheria, Palermo's nobility built their villas in the 18th century, and Goethe spent a whole day here in 1787. Later the town turned to production: citrus fruits, preserves, pasta, essential lemon oil, exported to Europe and America, and anchovies caught at Aspra. Two itineraries to listen to one after the other, inside Villa Palagonia and through the streets of the town. Stay at least a full day. That tradition of work is found today at the table: sfincione, ice creams, family-run trattorias, two Michelin-starred restaurants. The local tourist office accompanies the visit and helps you choose among the area's producers and venues.
