View of Agira

Highlight • Viewpoint

Agira is a Sicilian town whose history confuses myth and reality. Thucydides claims that these areas were inhabited by the Cyclops. Thanks to some historical findings it is thought that the first human settlements here date back to more than 30,000 years ago, when Sicily was still connected to the mainland.

Agira Historic Center

Highlight • Historical Site

The story of Agira is lost between myth and reality. Thucydides claims that these areas were inhabited by the Cyclops while some finds, still being analyzed, would date the first human settlements to more than 30,000 years ago, when Sicily was still connected to the mainland. The name of the city is also a matter of debate. Some make it derive from the name of Agiride, a leader of the Sican people, who would have founded the city while others link it to the Greek word argyos, silver, due to the presence in the vicinity of a mine of the precious metal.

Lake Pozzillo

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Lake Pozzillo, also known as Lake Orcel, is an artificial reservoir created by blocking the waters of the Salso river. The dam was completed in 1959 and is part of a larger project that included the creation of four other artificial lakes in the province of Enna. The water collected during the winter season is used for agricultural purposes in the months with less rainfall. A wooded area has developed around the lake consisting mainly of eucalyptus trees which today guarantees an ideal refreshment for migratory fauna in transit. In the vicinity of the reservoir there are several routes and excursions on foot and by bicycle are organized regularly.
