THE MILL SALEMI VON PIAZZA ARMERINA

The Salemi mill is situated in  Gessima district and is situated along the SP 89 / a, continuing into the SP 36 and then to a dirt road.
In all probability the ancient waterway has been diverted since the vegetation around artifact is particularly scarce.
The wall, made of local stone, has a heterogeneous process for the channel and the rest of the structure: the size of the channel is square in the water tower and buttresses, shapeless in the remaining parts; the segments of service spaces are just blanks and irregular size.

The state of the mill local conservation is bad, while the adjacent rooms of hospitalization and elevation intended to housing the miller with obvious renovations even with accretions of reinforced concrete.
Today it is particularly appreciable the structure of the feeding channel with the particularities of the side buttresses shoe and the vutti that, very rare example between the mills of the ski, has a circular cross section rather than rectangular.
