Mussomeli (CL) 31 Luglio 2023

Riportato col paraetimologico “Mons mellis”, in linea con l’attestato Mosimelli del 1408, il toponimo può indurre a una ricostruzione etimologica fuorviante. Quella più fondata, invece, rinvia all’arabo “manzil”, con valore semantico di ‘sosta’, ‘dimora’, nonché a “mal”, con significato di ‘ricchezza’, ‘ubertà’, come propone qualche studioso. L’origine dell’attuale centro urbano affonda le sue radici in un’epoca molto antica, come testimoniano numerosi reperti archeologici che risalgono all’epoca dei sicani e dei siculi. In seguito fu conquistata dai romani e dagli arabi. Nel XIV secolo, per volere degli aragonesi, il casale fu concesso a Manfredi Chiaromonte, che fece costruire una roccaforte difensiva che prese il suo nome: castello Chiaromonte. Nell’anno 1549 il feudo fu acquistato dal feudatario Cesare Lanza, la cui famiglia lo tenne fino al 1812, anno di abolizione dei diritti feudali. Del suo patrimonio storico-architettonico fanno parte: il castello chiaromontano, che sorge su una rupe alta ottanta metri, completamente restaurato; la chiesa madre, dedicata a San Ludovico, eretta nel Seicento; il santuario di Maria Santissima dei Miracoli, costruito nel XVI secolo; la parrocchiale di Sant’Antonio, edificata nel Settecento, al cui interno sono custodite pregevoli tele del La Barbera; la chiesa di Santa Margherita, del XIV secolo; la parrocchiale dei Monti, del Settecento; la chiesa della Madonna delle Vanelle, dell’Ottocento. Fuori dal centro abitato è possibile ammirare i reperti archeologici dei siti del monte Polizzello, di monte Raffe e di Catellucciano.
