The Legacy of Tornabene & Sons

From Barones of Sicily to Builders of a Legacy

In the year 1393, under the sun-soaked skies of Sicily, the Tornabene family was granted the noble title of Barones. But our ancestors were never content to simply rule -- they built.

From the fortified edges of Palermo to the olive-lined roads of the countryside, the Tornabene’s became known not just as nobles, but as master craftsmen, architects of stone and timber, guardians of structure and spirit.

Through wars, droughts, and dynastic shifts, the Tornabene’s endured -- not by hiding behind titles, but by working with their hands. They laid the foundations of cathedrals, restored the roofs of abbeys, forged iron gates, and carved marble for public squares. Palermo itself rose higher because of Tornabene ingenuity -- each generation building upon the work of the last, never forgetting that true nobility is proven through service.

As centuries passed, the tools changed, but the soul of the work did not. When the family crossed the sea to a new land, they brought their legacy with them -- not in chests of gold, but in calloused hands and unwavering pride. That legacy now lives in Anvil Roofing Co., powered by Tornabene & Sons -- where craftsmanship is not a trade, but a birthright.

I, Julius Tornabene, and my sons carry forward this tradition -- honoring our ancestors not with monuments, but with every roof we raise. Our clients don't just get protection from the elements; they get a piece of history, a name built over centuries, a lineage forged in the fires of Sicily and carried with pride into every home we serve.
