Military Shrine and Belvedere.Built at the behest of Richard the Lionheart, King of England, in transit from Messina for the Third Crusade, the fortress was modernized to be part of the defense system wanted by Charles V in the sixteenth century. In the ancient tower that still exists was held prisoner, in 1284, Charles of Anjou called "the Lame", captured by Admiral Roger of Lauria, during a naval battle. Destroyed by the 1908 earthquake, the Military Shrine of Christ the King was built on the esplanade where the bodies of the fallen of the two World Wars are laid.
