Via Pio la Torre, Petrosino

The cluster is in the coastal plain around Marsala on the western tip of Sicily, facing the Stagnone lagoon and the island of Mozia. The coast here is low and salt-flat rather than cliffed, with the Riserva Naturale Orientata Isole dello Stagnone immediately by Marsala. Marsala is the nearest town of size and has a large historic centre, port functions, wine cellars and the archaeological museum with finds from Mozia. The area is known for salt pans, Marsala wine and Punic archaeology linked to Mozia.
