Italy
Beautiful Baroque architecture abounds in the this UNESCO-listed town.
Scicli is likely named after the Sicel tribe who founded the town around 300 BC. While the town flourished as a medieval trade center, its most notable era came in the late Baroque period when the town had to be rebuilt following a massive earthquake. Today, visitors can experience the town’s Baroque splendor with a walk through the largely car-free historic center. Of the town’s countless Baroque churches and palaces, the most most richly decorated is the Church of San Bartolomeo. But since the Baroque style permeates the entire town, not just the monuments, explorers are rewarded with beautiful details at every turn, particularly on the recently restored Via Mormina Pen, where sumptuous palaces are sidled alongside splendid churches.
