Ragusa's Unmissable Treasures

Ragusa and the surrounding Val di Noto towns represent the pinnacle of Sicilian Baroque architecture. This selection features the twin masterpieces of the Duomo di San Giorgio in Ragusa and Modica, the Neo-Gothic Donnafugata Castle, and the historic streets of Scicli. Highlights include the blue-domed Santa Maria dell'Itria and the transition between Ragusa Superiore and Ibla via Santa Maria delle Scale. These sites showcase the 18th-century reconstruction following the 1693 earthquake, characterized by ornate limestone facades, dramatic staircases, and ancient archaeological settlements like Grotta di San Nicola.
