The charm of Baglio

In Sicilian it would be said “Bagghiu”, and in all likelihood it is of Arab origin, since the courtyards in that language are called Bahal.
The baglio is a farm or a factory, with an inner courtyard. It looks like a fortified building and inside there is a large courtyard.
There is also a distinction between them: Bagli Padronali and Contadini. The difference lies mainly in the shape and details: the so-called Masterpieces are quadrangular and whose courtyard is closed in the four sides, it is accessed, in fact, through a large opening, closed by a door; those Contadini (Farmer), less sumptuous, although even the master ones do not exceed in pomp, are rectangular in shape with very small windows and high and are more recent as buildings, than the master ones.
