Via Giorgione, 4, Caltagirone

The cluster is in the inland hills of south-western Catania province, in a landscape of cultivated uplands, clay and tuff slopes, and scattered valleys. Caltagirone is the nearest substantial town and has a large historic centre, churches and palaces, and it is widely known for ceramics. The area lies within the zone of the Val di Noto late-Baroque towns, and Caltagirone is part of the UNESCO listing for the Late Baroque Towns of the Val di Noto. Piazza Armerina and the Erei uplands are within the wider surrounding interior, but the immediate 15 km landscape is mainly agricultural hill country rather than a single named natural feature.
