Apartments near the Archaeological Park of Selinunte
The Archaeological Park of Selinunte is one of the most important and spectacular archaeological sites in the Mediterranean. Situated along the south-western coast of Sicily, between the sea and the countryside, it preserves the remains of the ancient Greek city founded in the 7th century BC and offers visitors an extraordinary journey through over two thousand years of history. Covering an area of around 270 hectares, Selinunte is considered the largest archaeological park in Europe. The area comprises the Acropolis, the fortifications, the residential quarters and a series of majestic Doric temples which still bear witness today to the grandeur and prosperity achieved by the Greek colony. Among the most famous structures are the beautifully reconstructed Temple E and the remains of the temples that dominate the landscape, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.

As well as the Acropolis and the eastern temples, the park also includes Manuzza Hill and the Sanctuary of Malophoros, sites that offer an insight into the complex urban and religious organisation of the Greek polis. Throughout the year, cultural events, guided tours and performances are organised, helping to further showcase this extraordinary historical heritage.
