The museum is located within the archaeological area of the ancient "classic" town of Camarina. The site is 35 Km far

from Ragusa and can be reached along the provincial road S. Croce-Scoglitti (fraction of the municipality of Vittoria).

The museum is a late eighteenth-century rural construction, an example of agricultural residential typology in the

Iblean seaside. The building, which is structured in several buildings around a central space on two sides to the

countryside, insists on the site of the Acropolis where the Athena Temple stood. Some of the Temple findings are still

visible at the Museums. The museum shows in 8 rooms the political, civil and economic history of Kamarina, urban

development, the most important monuments and the material and artistic production.

Recently fully restored, the Castle, with its white façade and Venetian Gothic loggia, gives a warm feeling of pleasure

every time it is visited, perhaps because it is a castle that could have illustrated a book of fairy tales and there is an

immediate sense of recognition. The Castle that we see today is largely due to the work and imagination of the

nineteenth century politician Baron Corrado Arezzo de Spuches [1824-95]. Inside the Castle, which has 122 rooms,

only the first floor is open to visitors, but there is plenty to fascinate: you reach the “piano nobile” via a black stone

staircase with statues on either side. Then there is the “smoking room”, which has a wallpaper with pipe motifs. Also

the women have the “sala delle donne” (women's room), where they passed evenings. here is also a music room with

three mechanical pianos, a billiard room, a picture gallery and the bedroom.

The province of Ragusa is full of archaeological evidence of past ages. One of the most impressive places is the

"Trabacche Cave", recently arranged and made fully available by the "Soprintendenza ai Beni Culturali". It is not really

a natural cave but a small catacomb excavated in the limestone plateaus that characterize the Iblean mountains. By

tradition, catacombs are the places where the early Christians hid themselves to escape the Roman persecution.

Today this vision has been greatly resized. The catacomb was in fact the cemetery of excellence of the first Christian

communities. They continued to be built even after the 313rd century, the year of the Edict of Tolerance, emanated

by Emperor Constantine, who definitively ended the persecution.

Kaukana is a seaside archaeological site in the municipality of Santa Croce Camerina. The ancient town, known for its archaeologi-

cal excavations, is located a few hundred meters from Punta Secca, near Marina di Ragusa. Romans during the imperial era

strengthened the port of Kaucanae which was important for centuries even in the Byzantine period. There are in fact the

remains of a three-nave cemetery church with tombs in the floor. The excavations have brought to light an urbanistically

interesting dwelling with simple rectangular houses of two or three rooms and buildings with many rooms and multiple

floors with stairs and courtyards. The area was visited and studied by the famous archaeologist Paolo Orsi. The Archaeological

Museum Ibleo in Ragusa collects the evidences of the area, that irepresents the Kaukana Archaeological Park with rests

of a late-Roman and Byzantine trade port.

Noto, known as the pearl of Sicilian Baroque, gives its name to the district called Val di Noto, made up of a string of municipalities remarkable for their art works and architecture of their palaces and churches. Since the nineteen-eighties, Noto has become even more famous thanks to the annual Infiorata (floral display), which takes place in May.

HistoryThe presence of the Aragonese gave Noto a particular city structure and made it a centre of art and culture in 1400. Like Ragusa, Noto had also literally flourished again after the devastating earthquake of 1600, after this terrible event, massive reconstruction works began. The architecture in Noto is, indeed, unique of its kind, with large squares and staircases, all elegantly illuminated by the typical pinkish colour of the local stone.

Did you know?The city of Noto and its architectural splendour are strongly linked with the figure of the famous Giuseppe Lanza, duke of Camastra, who was in chargeof the entire reorganisation of the city and gave the typical Sicilian Baroque elements. The duke of Camastra was also responsible for the rebuilding of Catania, again following an earthquake, which was redesigned according to antiearthquake criteria way ahead of their time. Some places not to be missed Palazzo Ducezio, the town hall, remarkable for the beauty of its loggia with eleven arches; Chiesa Madre di San Nicola, the city’s majestic Baroque cathedral; Palazzo Nicolaci di Villadorata, which is one of the most beautiful aristocratic buildings. Its balconies are made in beaten iron and decorations that depictmermaids, winged horses, hippogri�s and other invented animals.

Some places not to be missedNoto Antica is the city’s ancient urban settlement, which still contains remains dating from theGreek era. Eloro is an archaeological site located near to Noto, right at the mouth of the Tellaro river. The Roman Villa at the Tellaro is a real treasure to be discovered. From Noto you can reach it by motorway, turning o� towards Pachino. The villa dates back to the 4th Century AD and conserves an incredibly rich mosaic work, whose preciousness challenges the one of the more famous Villa del Casale in Piazza Armerina.

Archaeological and natural heritage sitesCava Ispica è un vero e proprio museo all’aperto che include una gran varietà di reperti riconducili ad epoche diverse: grotte, a�reschi e un’estesa catacomba. Da non perdere inoltre il Castello Sicano. Una giornata a Cava d’Ispica si rivela un’ottima occasione anche per conoscere la vegetazione tipica locale.

Noto’s traditional local products If you happen to visit Noto, don’t miss a good draught of Moscato di Noto, the local protected origin wine with a pleasant aromatic taste. And for dessert, try the Conchiglie, delicious sweets with real pasta in shell shapes filled with citron jam.

Siracusa, located on the southeastern coast of the island at 100km from the Resort, is the fourth largest city in Sicily by popu-lation. In the past, it was one of the greatest cities of the ancient world and among the largest greek polis in the world. In addition, for more than a millennium, until the Islamic conquest of Sicily, Siracusa was the most important city in Sicily and the island’s capital of the Roman and Byzantine Empire. Characterized by enormous wealth and important historical evidences, in 2005 the city was awarded the title of World Heritage Site by UNESCO along with the ancient Rocky Necropolis of Pantalica.

HistoryThe origins of Syracuse date back to the fourteenthcentury BC and refer to the remains of circular huts found on the island of Ortigia. The island of Ortigia was the first settlement inhabited of the ancient Syracuse, which was founded in the eighth century BC by the Corinthians. Later, in 485 BC, the city was conquered by Gelon, tyrant of Gela, who defeated the Carthaginians in 480 BC. With Gelon, wars against Athens began and continueduntil 415 BC with the defeat of Athens. In the third and fourth centuries A.D. Syracuse fell under Roman rule until 476 AD. There followed various rules and between 663-668 Syracuse became the capital of the Eastern Empire. The Normans rediscovered the city in the eleventh century and Frederick II of Swabia, in the thirteenth century, fortified the island of Ortigiawith Castle Maniace. In the sixteenth century, Charles V further enlarged and fortified the city, but in 1693 an earthquake completely destroyed the center which was rebuilt in Baroque style buildings. With the unification of Italy. in 1860, the Spanishwalls were demolished and the construction of the districts on the mainland began.

One of the best-known symbols of Sicilian folk iconography, the cart was created as a means of transport that responded to practical needs, but went on to be transformed into a vehicle for cultural transmission. Sculpture and painting were applied its various constituent parts to represent moments from the island’s history, or from epic stories or popular religion, creating valuable constructions that were genuine traveling works of art. The Sicilian cart is closely linked to the history of the island, but is hasn’t always existed, not least because the deterioration of the road network after the fall of the Roman Empire made two-wheeled vehicles almost unusable. It was only at the beginning of the nineteenth century that the cart began to be widespread, as prior to then all trade and transport were generally carried out by sea. Over the years the cart has lost its original purpose of transporting goods and has taken on a symbolic value as part of folklore. Although it is much rarer now, the knowledge of these artisans has not disappeared as it was closely guarded and handed down over time, from father to son. It is rich and complex skill, kept alive by a tradition of craft families. A couple of them, has based a workshop in Ragusa Ibla: Biagio Castilletti and Damiano Rotella.

It is an ancient art that is passed on from generation to generation but unfortunately it is likely to be lost in the midst

of time. The Sicilian "sfilato" is the ancient embroidery art that, in 2007, was inserted by the Sicilian Region in the REI,

the UNESCO Immaterial Register. The workings of the Sicilian parade are three: 500, 700 and 400: each of them, is

distinguished by the particular technique of knitting the threads and the drawing. But Chiaramonte can boast an
