The Regional Mineral Park extends over a large area that was affected by fervent mining activity during the 19th and 20th centuries. Here, first the Pennisi family, the last owners of the Baronia of the same name, and then the region with its appropriate entities, managed several mining structures whose remains are now a real outdoor museum of the Sicilian mining civilization. The jewel of this area is the magnificent Palazzo Pennisi. The Rio Floristella is also very interesting, with its highly mineralized, pearly white waters.
