Provincia: ME - Area: Messina surroundings
Mirto is a small and suggestive village located on a small hill, in the heart of the Nebrodi Park.
It is believed that the first inhabited area was formed following the arrival of the survivors of the earthquake that destroyed Ruma, an ancient Roman settlement. The inhabited center was then completely razed to the ground during the war of the Vespers and later rebuilt. The village was then under the dominion of various noble families among which the Larcan and the Filangeri stand out.
Appreciated for the nature that surrounds it, for the products of its land, its historic center also welcomes the visitor with monuments and works of particular artistic and historical importance.
