Poggioreale is a village in the province of Trapani, sadly known for the devastating earthquake of 1968 that destroyed most of it, leaving it today as an evocative “ghost town.” Among the ruins of churches, palaces, and empty streets, Poggioreale tells an intense story of tragedy and historical memory. The village is ideal for those who love history, urban archaeology, and unusual atmospheres, offering a unique and reflective experience of Sicily’s past and its most dramatic events.
