Aegusa and the butterfly-shaped island

Aegusa is the ancient Phoenician name for the island, but not only. This name that comes from afar and carries within it a precious history, is also the name chosen by Vincenzo Florio for one of his most successful oenological treasures.

Once you disembark in Favignana, you will only need a few steps on foot to come across the first visible trace of the Florios. It is a real tribute to Ignazio Florio, to whom the islanders have dedicated a statue located in Piazza Europa.

It is only the first of many signs of the importance of the family for the island, Treat yourself from here to a walk along the seafront and through the streets adjacent to the old port, and then visit the most famous places: you will feel like you have gone back in time.

Palazzo Florio: Art Nouveau in Favignana

It will be one of the first things you will see when you land on the island: Palazzo Florio has a cheeky charm that recalls the atmosphere of the late nineteenth century and is very reminiscent of the Villino Florio in Palermo.

In the years of the Belle Époque, the Palace became a crossroads of the crowned heads of half of Europe, hosted by the most glamorous couple of the moment, that of Donna Franca and Ignazio Florio jr.

The Tonnara, the symbolic place of the Florio family

For a journey through the history of Favignana you cannot miss a visit to the Florio tuna fishery. Officially called the Former Florio Plant of the Favignana and Formica tuna fisheries, it includes the spaces of the tuna fisheries with an adjoining establishment for the conservation of the catch. With its 32 thousand square meters, it is one of the largest tuna fisheries in the Mediterranean.

Tasting a glass of Aegusa in front of the sunset in Favignana will be a unique emotion, which you will carry back with you forever, when you return from your trip.
