Approaching the northwestern slopes of the Nebrodi mountain range, travelers reach Castel di Lucio at the triple border of Messina, Palermo, and Enna. Home to 1,366 residents, the village holds a geographic record as the most distant municipality by road from its provincial capital, sitting over 167 kilometers from Messina.
Known as Castelluzzo until 1863, the town appears under its historic name on the 1580–1585 maps in the Vatican Museums. Positioned on the far edge of the Diocese of Patti, its mountain borders extend toward neighboring towns like Mistretta and Geraci Siculo.
