The history and age of this castle is interesting in itself. But even if all you go for is the view and / or Baroque chapel, you'll be amply rewarded. The best view is just off the chapel on a balcony that faces the town and the dominate Madonie Mountains. I've seen quite a lot of Baroque, but the amount and quality stuffed into the chapel of this old castle is something. Hopefully, you'll have a live guide or book or something that will give some information on the art in the chapel as it's quite interesting too. The look at the castle won't take too long unless you want it to - 30-45 minutes. But take some time enjoying the piazza below the castle. Eat lunch or have a gelato. Notice the men's clubs (you'll know these by all the men sitting out front) It's Sicilian rural town life at it's best.
