Bivona

Nestled in the heart of the Sicani Mountains, Bivona is a charming historic town in the Agrigento hinterland, immersed in a natural landscape rich in colours, fragrances, and silence. Its authentic atmosphere, combined with the centuries-old history of the area, makes this small town an ideal destination for those who want to discover a rural, genuine Sicily far from the beaten track.

The historic centre preserves evidence of its medieval past, including ancient palaces, stone alleys and the Mother Church of St John the Baptist, which houses valuable works of art.
