Gangi is a mood. Its monuments, its Churches, its typical places, its old stones, dripping of history and culture, enclose its people's spiritual beauty and values.
The scent and the purity of the air, the odours and the flavours of the different foods, the stillness and the serenity of the place, are mixed with the heartiness and the hospitality of its inhabitants.
In the next pages, we will show you Gangi, our town, "THE PEARL OF THE MADONIE".
The Mayor:
Giuseppe Ferrarello

Deeply rooted in the popular religious tradition Palm Sunday, in Gangi, marks the beginning of the Holy Week celebrations.
One of its features is the unchanged repetition of old deeds, of which the local Brotherhoods are the protagonists... | |
| | The ear festival (La Sagra della Spiga) ) is a folkloristic rural manifestation, born thanks to a praiseworthy enterprise of the Pro Gangi. It has become the fulcrum of the Madonie's manifestations and of the whole province. It recalls the customs, the traditions and the culture of the country life in ancient times, interlaced to a pagan mythology, particularly to the celebration of the goddess Cerere's myth, the goddess of the abundance and the harvests. |
