Syracuse is a historic city in Sicily, the capital of the province of Syracuse. The city is notable for its rich Greek history, culture, amphitheatres, architecture, and as the birthplace of the preeminent mathematician and engineer Archimedes. This 2,700-year-old city played a key role in ancient times, when it was one of the major powers of the Mediterranean world. Syracuse is located in the southeast corner of the island of Sicily, right by the Gulf of Syracuse next to the Ionian Sea. The city was founded by Ancient Greek Corinthians and became a very powerful city-state. Syracuse was allied with Sparta and Corinth, exerting influence over the entire Magna Grecia area of which it was the most important city. Once described by Cicero as "the greatest Greek city and the most beautiful of them all", it later became part of the Roman Republic and Byzantine Empire. In the modern day, the city is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site along with the Necropolis of Pantalica. (Palazzo Cavalieri) →

Sicily at a glance

Sicily Hotel

The Trinacria of the ancient Greeks, the culture of the Normans and the influence of the Arabs. An island volatile and vibrant like its sea, its volcanoes and its people.

A sun drenched island with a splendid coastline and a landscape rich in contrasts, Sicily is a compendium of the greatest civilisations and cultures of all time, a book the pages of which filled with centuries of history and art. The Greek cities of Sicily: Agrigento, Selinunte, Segesta, and Syracuse, were among the most beautiful of the Hellenic world. Thousands of years later, today’s visitors can still admire the Valley of Temples at Agrigento or watch a summer performance in the great Greek Theatre of Syracuse. The same concoction of Mediterranean cultures which has influenced the course of the island’s history, has made its way in to the kitchens of Sicily, resulting in a delicious and extremely varied cuisine.
