Most of them are fine examples of Sicilian <strong>Baroque architecture<\/strong> that preserve valuable sculptures, paintings, stucco work, and frescoes inside.<\/p>\n<p>Of particular note is the Basilica of Maria SS. Assunta, which dominates the city&#8217;s main square. Built in 1332, it was enlarged and modified several times to reach its present appearance only in the 18th century. The Latin cross plan is divided into three naves, separated by columns of red marble extracted from <strong>Mount Bonifato<\/strong>. Inside are preserved Flemish paintings by Borremans and some works by Antonello Gangini.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alcamo<\/strong> &#8216;s most flourishing period is evidenced by the majestic <strong>Castle of the Counts of Modica<\/strong>. It was built in the mid-1400s at the behest of the Clare family. It passed under different owners until the Caprera family, <strong>Counts of Modica<\/strong>, after whom it was named. It has a rhomboidal plan and the perimeter marked by 4 towers, two cylindrical and two quadrangular towers that alternate. Beautiful mullioned and trefoil windows in Gothic-Catalan style.<\/p>\n<p><u>A few kilometers from the city<\/u>, on a rocky plateau, the <strong>Castle of Calatubo<\/strong>, attested since the end of the year 1000, is clearly visible. Around the sturdy fortress probably lived a community that abandoned the village during Frederick II&#8217;s war against the Arabs. Used for various purposes over the centuries, it has come to the present in good condition.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d573006 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d573006\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-25a988d\" data-id=\"25a988d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-14d47bc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"14d47bc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Insights<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b9120ae elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b9120ae\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-44a3124\" data-id=\"44a3124\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7ee6a10 elementor-grid-3 elementor-grid-tablet-2 elementor-grid-mobile-1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-loop-grid\" data-id=\"7ee6a10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;template_id&quot;:114751,&quot;_skin&quot;:&quot;post&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:&quot;3&quot;,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:&quot;2&quot;,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;edit_handle_selector&quot;:&quot;[data-elementor-type=\\&quot;loop-item\\&quot;]&quot;,&quot;row_gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;row_gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;row_gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"loop-grid.post\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-loop-nothing-found-message\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alcamo: to see Alcamo is full of churches.
