The castle can be visited, you do not pay a ticket, you just have to be available to make a kind of outing. Too bad that after the restoration has been abandoned to himself, however, however, I recommend to visit it because it dates back to the year one thousand, and is part of the history of Sicily. There is a beautiful view from which I recommend eating a nice sandwich brought directly from home
