Description
This guide aims to give you as must information as possible on the Castello Manfredonico-Chiaramontanto in Mussomeli, also known by its nickname of “Eagle’s Nest”.
Our goal is to help:
◆ Those who cannot visit in person to enjoy a virtual visit as realistic as possible;
◆ Those who have already visited to hold on to a marvelous memory;
◆ Those who are planning a visit to enjoy a delicious teaser and to have with them a personal guide during their visit;
◆ Those who are not aware of it, and invite them to visit.
The Castello di Mussomeli, designed in 1364 by Manfredi Chiaramonte the 3rd, was constructed on a powerful outcropping of a unique, enormous block of limestone reaching almost 80 meters high, located in a position of absolute dominion over the surrounding countryside. The castle is almost fully inaccessible, equipped with a double ringed wall, able to hold even a full garrison of knights who, if needed, would be ready for battle. It was impossible to approach the castle without being seen in time. The only access route is narrow and easily defended from on high.
The inside is organized in a functional manner into well apportioned rooms according to their use. There are stables, the Prince’s rooms, service areas, armory, subterranean areas, and the chapel, all of which are located and organized in ways that best utilize the natural morphological characteristics of the rock on which the castle was built.
