The park is managed by the Association "Laurus" of Alcamo. Thanks to its volunteers, this green lung with hundreds of plants of the Mediterranean flora, gives the chance to children and adults to relax in the middle of its green. Inside there are a children's playground and a small zoo farm.
Chiesa di San Francesco d'Assis
It was built between the years 1224-1226, demolished and rebuilt between 1608-1648. Inside it there are a marble ancon, probably by Domenico Gagini, and two sculptures reproducing the Maddalena and Saint Mark, both ascribed to Antonello Gagini.
Celebration in honour of Immacolata Concezione with a novena, pastoral melodies and procession.
There is a hall with comfortable seats on two levels (the stalls on the ground floor and the balcony on the first floor).
A popular legend says that here lived the famous poet Ciullo d'Alcamo, a native writer of this city. On the façade, there is the main door and an arched window, realized with limestone travertinoide. Above the door you can see a decoration in high relief, with a compass and a delineator in its middle, between two big drakes ridden by two small angels with a trident in their hands.
Chiesa di San Tommaso
The date of its construction is uncertain, probably the first half of the 15th century. It is faced by a great portal with geometrical decorations.
