Falcone is part of the Nebrodi park, a green area where visitors can enjoy wonderful natural paths discovering its prominent Mediterranean vegetation.
Falcone is located between Capo Tindari and the Milazzo mountains, framed by the Thyrrenian sea and the Novara Rock. This tiny village is part of the Nebrodi park, a green area where visitors can enjoy wonderful natural paths rich with Mediterranean vegetation. The village has ancient origins dating back to the 3rd millennium BC; however the current old town centre was founded in 1857 and it was included in the feudal town of Oliveri.
Today you can still see the ruins of the medieval walls and ancient town. The village prospered thanks to the commercial fishing activity which helped boost population growth. The village has plenty of charming monuments such as the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist; the Church of SS . Immaculate Conception, built in 1850 and the small Church of St. Anthony.
Close to the village it is possible to visit the beautiful Laghetti Marinello Nature Reserve, created in 1877 to protect and study the wonderful natural environment.
