Tower of Ligny

Ligny Turm Ligny Turm

The captain general and viceroy of the Kingdom of Sicily – whose name it bears – started the construction of this tower in 1671, on the north-western end of the city. This massive quadrangular construction, designed by Carlos De Grunembergh, was to defend this area of the city from Turkish pirates. 

The Tower, is an iconic city monument, much loved and photographed by travellers who often depict it in their photo travel accounts of Trapani.

Trapani
The sickle-shaped city stretching out between two seas, among salt pans dotted with windmills, the Misteri of Good Friday and the harbour from which you set sail for the Egadi

Trapani

A strip of land squeezed between two seas, salt pans that turn to gold and pink at sunset, windmills that grind PGI salt, the longest Misteri procession in Italy and the harbour from which hydrofoils depart for Favignana. Trapani is the beguiling, salt-tinged capital of western Sicily.
