The powder magazines are an important historical testament to human presence and activity on Monte Orlando in past eras, and they are part of the complex of fortifications and military construction artifacts dating back to the Aragonese and Bourbon dominations (14th-18th centuries). Even in more recent times, as indeed already in Roman times, the extraordinary strategic position of Monte Orlando was appreciated. The powder magazines enclose, within mighty walls, installations where war material (mainly gunpowder) was stored. Today, the Carolina, the Ferdinando, and the Trabacco are preserved in good condition and clearly visible.
