Sommatino is a lovely tiny village which is rich in history and traditions. 

Due to its location, Sommatino was named by the Romans with the Latin word “Summus” which means “high”. The feudal town was later created in the 14th century by the noble family Lo Porto, who ruled until the prince of Trabia acquired the town in the 17th century.  The most important monuments of the village are:
