This church is one of a kind. It dominates the square. Inside you will see the only church having curtains hanged between the columns. You can also have a small tour if the old church destroyed after earthquake.

Not far from the Giardini Ibleo, this is all that remains of the Church of San Giorgio that was destroyed in the C17th earthquake but it is certainly worth going to have a look. Originally built in C14th probably by the notable Chiaramonte family it is constructed in the Catalan Gothic style. In the lunette you can see St George slaying the dragon and above that the House of Aragon coat of arms.

A beautiful building in fictional 'Vigata', this is used as the set of the TV series Montalbano from March to July and you are able to take a tour of the rooms. Our guide spoke excellent English and my husband and myself were the only ones on the tour - you get to see the police station reception, Montalbano's office then upstairs is the commissioner's office. You can also buy a combined ticket that includes 2 local churches as well. If the love the TV series, you must go - my husband even got to sit behind the desk!

We were amazed by this place - small but yet grand. An old fashioned gentleman's club that had been (eventually) brought up to date - the old billiard room was turned into a tea room for the ladies to have a natter although they did rescue the billiard table and re-site it out the back. The theatre across the way was awesome; it must be wonderful to see a proper production there. Then we went into the garden and a tiny one roomed museum of clothes and bits and bobs. If you get the chance to visit, take it.
