| TRAPPETO
Forty kilometres from Palermo, in the heart of the Gulf of Castellammare (Trapani), Trappeto is a corner of paradise immersed in a scenery of natural beauty, a fertile land of thriving greenery in the middle of a very suggestive historical itinerary, wet by the splendid colours of the sea. Set up in the forest called Parthenia by Federico II of Aragona during the XIV century, Trappeto has changed little by little into a territory rich in vineyards and citrus orchards that overlooks the sea, ploughed in the past by sailing ships loaded of sugar and wine and nowadays sailed by boats full of tourists and vacationers. The name " Trappetum Cannamelarum " was born together with the first factory (1480) that dealt with the extraction and the refining of sugar canes and a fortified tower like those that still exist in different styles built by the people such as Arabs, Normans, Christians, Moors etc. The first homes of the suburb were most of all fishermen homes, built around the Church of Our Lady of the Annunciation (1680).For centuries Trappeto was inhabited by farmers and fishermen that mingled together the sweetness of nature's products and the disappointments of a life of hardship and emigration in a Sicily oppressed by the Mafia. After World War II, Trappeto became a symbol of total poverty, touching the most sensitive hearts of Italy and Europe, thanks to Danilo Dolci's work and the running of the Centre for studies "Borgo di Dio " (1968), located on the promontory of the town, which diffused the cultural and humane treasures of these Sicilians. Since then, a wonderful revival that caused a rupture with the past began thanks to the same residents of Trappeto that were inspired by a renewed faith and an inexhaustible need for humanization and justice, towards a destiny of inexorable progress. Trappeto is nowadays a chosen destination by an enthusiast and loyal tourism that can find thousands of pleasant occasions to relax and social life in a town immersed in open spaces with many flower - beds and multicoloured fishermen homes decorated by murals.
