Scicli is a town in southeastern Sicily, Italy, located in the Val di Noto region known for its baroque architecture. The town features ornate stone buildings, grand staircases, and churches built after the 1693 earthquake. Visitors explore the historic center on foot, admire the palazzo facades, and visit the Church of San Giorgio perched on a hilltop overlooking the town.
Scicli is located in the Ragusa province of southeastern Sicily, Italy, and forms part of the Late Baroque Towns of the Val di Noto, a UNESCO World Heritage Site inscribed in 2002. The town was substantially rebuilt after the catastrophic earthquake of 1693 that devastated much of eastern Sicily, producing the cohesive Baroque urban fabric visible today.
