FUTURA MARSALA

A journey in time in search of the origin of Marsala

From the destruction of ancient Motya to the foundation of Lilibeum, from the possible reconstruction of an irreparably lost Norman-Arab past to the birth of the Italian dream with the landing of the “Mille”, an event linked with a double thread, both ideal and temporal in its recurrence, to the terrible Allied bombing of 11 May 1943.

The local historical and architectural heritage put to the test by technology, from the catapults used for the first time to break down Motya’s resistance to the rain of fire unleashed by the B-26s in the Second World War, also relived through it, in a three-dimensional story full of pathos.
