Isola delle Femmine (Sicilian: Isula dî Fìmmini) is an Italian town in northwestern Sicily, administratively part of the Metropolitan City of Palermo.
Despite its name, which can be translated in English as "The Island of Females", the town is located in mainland Sicily. The name of the town was chosen after the name of the small island that sits just off shore from it when it became an independent municipality from the neighboring city of Capaci in 1854.[3] The reason for this choice of name was a natural one based upon the combined history of the town and the island, a history that also explains the origin of the Island’s name.
