Tips and curiosities of the tomolo

A fascinating curiosity about the island of Pantelleria is that it is known for its 'Dammusi', traditional dwellings unique to the island. Dammusi are characteristic constructions with thick walls made of local lava stone and white domed roofs. These structures are designed to withstand the summer heat and keep the interior cool, thanks to their architecture that favours air circulation and thermal insulation.
The uniqueness of these dwellings is not only limited to their functionality. The Dammusi are also a symbol of the local population's adaptation to the island's harsh environmental conditions, such as water scarcity and strong winds. Their construction is a perfect example of how culture and architecture can evolve in response to climate and landscape.
Today, many of these Dammusi have been renovated and converted into accommodation for tourists, offering them a unique experience of a stay and a dive into Pantelleria's tradition and history
