Church of San Domenico, Castelvetrano

Highlight • Religious Site

The Church of San Domenico was built in 1470 as a mausoleum of the Aragona-Tagliavia family. Of notable value are the chapel of the main altar and the chapel of the choir, decorated by Antonio Ferraro da Giuliana and his son Orazio. Among the most important works inside the church are: the marble tomb of Prince Carlo d'Aragona Tagliavia, the Sarcophagus of Ferdinando d'Aragona Tagliavia (1549) and the marble statue of the Madonna di Loreto (1489).

Bust of Giovanni Gentile

Highlight • Monument

Giovanni Gentile (Castelvetrano, May 30, 1875 - Florence, April 15, 1944) was an Italian philosopher. Together with Benedetto Croce he was one of the greatest exponents of idealism, and an important protagonist of Italian culture in the first half of the 20th century.
Gentile was born in 1875 to Giovanni, a pharmacist, and Teresa Curti, daughter of a notary. He lived his childhood in Campobello di Mazara and attended the Ximenes high school in Trapani. In 1895 he won the competition for four internal positions at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, where he enrolled in the Faculty of Letters and Philosophy. He has as teachers, among others, Alessandro D'Ancona (professor of literature, linked to the historical method and positivism and liberal ideas), Amedeo Crivellucci (professor of history) and Donato Jaia (professor of philosophy, Hegelian follower of Spaventa), who greatly influenced his philosophical thought as an adult.

Palazzo Pignatelli Aragona Tagliavia Cortes

Highlight • Historical Site

Palazzo Pignatelli Aragona Tagliavia Cortes, built on the pre-existing castle of Bellumvider (13th century) of which a corner tower and the foundations of a median tower are still visible, both octagonal in shape. The castle has undergone numerous changes until it assumed its current appearance, a Baroque palace. In the 1600s one of the towers of the castle was dismantled and replaced by the Collegiate Church of Saints Peter and Paul, together with the Palatine Chapel, unique examples in Sicily of a church on an upper floor; in the same period another building joined by a covered passage was built, which was the seat of the Government and today of the Town Hall.
