Roccella Valdemone

State: ME - Area: Messina surroundings

Roccella Valdemone is a small village in the Messina hinterland located at the foot of the Castelluzzo tip.
It is believed that its origins date back to the Greco-Roman period as evidenced by the discovery of some coins of the time. It is certain that these places were already inhabited when the Saracens arrived and that, from the time of Norman domination, when the feudal system was introduced in Sicily, the territory of Roccella was also divided into fiefdoms which were given as rewards to the barons who had provided their services, and of which the districts, into which the territory is still divided today, are ancient testimony.
