The Land of Oil

"L’esistenza dell’ulivo a San Basilio si perde nella memoria come un nido tra le frasche".

The Land of Oil

This is what Don Andrea Padova would have said, more than a hundred years ago. Chosen land of olive trees and vines since time immemorial. Place of ancient devotions, landing place of the Basilian monks in the Byzantine period and fascinating theater of the feudal history of Eastern Sicily.
Still white roads run through it like rivers of silence, which is accompanied by the varied and lively fragrances of its vegetation.
