The Baglio
What is a Baglio?
It is one of the most typical Sicilian buildings. A building that stood in the center of the agricultural properties, to concentrate all the functions, from the warehouse to production.
The Baglio Donna Franca, in particular, belonged to the most prestigious family that has linked its name to Marsala, the Florio.
