Catania & Siracusa

Discover Sicily Catania and Syracuse

Sicily has always been a particularly interesting land for the Italian homosexual movement with the very foundation of the first arcigay circle in this land.
If the United States have had Stonewall, the Italians have had the crime of Giarre to date still unresolved for everyone's silence.

In response to the dramatic event the Arcigay movement was born in Palermo.
In the days of the Sant'Agata festival, the city of Catania is surrounded by a special mystical folkloristic atmosphere. The highlight of the festival is the procession of the reliquary through the streets of the city that lasts a whole night.
During our stay we will visit the Catania cathedral, the Catacomb church of Sant 'Agata. All those churches that will be open and that normally remain closed during the year.
