Marsala, the Arab “Marsa Allah” (Harbour of God), is known in the whole world for one thing – wine! But the city does not only feature plenty of wines to taste in the town’s bars, enotecas and restaurants, there are also the great surroundings to be explored, wineries and vineyards, and some historic sites. Marsala’s inhabitants are very proud of their town’s long history. As in most of the Sicilian towns they were all here: Cathaginians, Romans, Arabs, Normans, Vandals. It were the Arabs who turned the city once again into a trade centre and thriving port. A big day in Marsala’s (and Italy’s) history was 11th of May 1860 when Garibaldi's troops landed in Marsala, and the unification of Italy began. The date went down in Italian history as the “Landing of the Thousand”. Marsala’s huge port was built under the Carthaginians in the year 396 BC. Some 450 years later the Romans recognized the town’s potential, and used it as a point for trading with other Mediterranean peoples, and for some empire expansion into North Africa. It must have been a very beautiful town at these times, Cicero spent some time there and described Marsala as “a wonderful city”. Marsala and its surroundings have been influenced more by the Arabs than by the Normans, unlike Palermo, Monreale and Cefalù.
