Palazzo Nicolaci di Villadorata rises in Noto and is located in via Corrado Nicolaci , where the Infiorata takes place every year . The facade, in Baroque style , is characterized by a large portal flanked by two large Ionic columns and surmounted by a balcony, as well as by six smaller balconies (three on each side), supported by corbels carved differently from the other, with the features of lions, children, centaurs, winged horses, chimeras and sirens. The interior is divided into ninety rooms, some of which are lavishly decorated, like the Salone delle Feste. The ground floor is home to the municipal library Principe di Villadorata. The palace is still inhabited by some members of the Nicolaci family.
The striking facade of this 18th-century palace features wrought-iron balconies supported by a swirling pantomime of grotesque figures. Inside, the richly brocaded walls and frescoed ceilings offer an idea of the sumptuous lifestyle of Sicilian nobles, as brought to life in the Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa novel Il Gattopardo (The Leopard).
Although there are a number of palaces in Noto (see Landolina Palace), this palatial residence of Baron Giacomo Nicolaci is the largest. The Baron and three other people lived in a building which consisted of 48 rooms, three cisterns and a number of outbuildings (Tobriner 117). Although the date 1737 is inscribed above the door, the palace was finally the product of three different architects working at different times, with the earliest development being the facade seen here. According to Grady, the City Library is now housed in this palace, which is appropriate since Nicolaci had been an important member of Noto's aristocratic intellectuals; he collected not only optical equipment but possessed a huge library as well.

Situated in the south-eastern corner of Sicily, Noto is famous for its Baroque architecture, and since 2002 it has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site 'Late Baroque Towns of the Val di Noto'. Generally listed as one of the 'must-see' tourist attractions of this part of Sicily, Noto is a pleasant and attractive little town, with a historic centre that is composed almost entirely of crumbling Baroque palaces, churches and houses. The town's striking architectural coherence is due to the major earthquake that struck Sicily in 1693. The old town of Noto was almost completely destroyed, and it was decided to to reconstruct a splendid new town several miles away. Thus Noto was rebuilt on its present site, carefully designed for functionality and architectural harmony.
The principal tourist activity in Noto is simply a wander around the narrow streets, admiring the golden-coloured stone buildings, the fantastical facades and balconies. The main street, Corso Vittorio Emanuele, runs from the imposing gateway of Porta Reale (close to the park and the bus stop) along past the Chiesa di San Francesco (1704-1745), which sits atop its long staircase, to the town's central piazza. Here the grand cathedral, the Duomo (1693-1770), faces the pretty Palazzo Ducezio (1746), now the seat of the Town Council. An admission fee of €1 admits you to one of the reception rooms within, the Sala degli Specchi ('hall of mirrors'), a palatial room with mildly interesting 19th Century frescoes.
Some of the fanciest balconies in town belong to the Palazzo Nicolaci (1739), where chubby beasts and cherubs stare down at Via Nicolaci. A suite of rooms on the second floor is open to the public (€1.50 admission). Sadly-dilapidated (although restoration work is promised), the wide spaces and painted walls evoke headier past times, as well as offering you the chance to step out onto a balcony and admire the view over Noto.
A third attraction open to the public is the Chiesa di San Carlo, back on the Corso. For € 1.50 you can climb the narrow spiral staircase up the belltower (campanile) to admire more views. Around Noto, other sites to see if you have a car include Noto Antica, the older, ruined town. There are further archaeological sites at Eloro (ruined Helorus) and Palazzo Acreide (former Akrai). Also within reach are Ragusa, a similarly-appealing Baroque town, the necropolis at Pantalica, and the provincial capital, Siracusa.
Over recent years an initiative has started to restore Noto's crumbling buildings - most crumbly of which was the famous Duomo, whose dome actually collapsed in 1996. While this preservation work may be good news, it does mean that some buildings are under scaffolding and several churches are closed to the public. Restoration of the on the Duomo finished in 2007 the building was reopened with much publicity and celebration
Other than the architecture, there aren't a large number of tourist attractions in Noto; and most visitors only spend a day here. However if you're looking for a peaceful place to stay for longer, there are a few B&Bs in Noto, as well as several in the countryside nearby (ideal if you have rented a car and want a break from Sicily's urban centres). More hotels can be found in Noto Marina, a coastal town about five miles away.
Noto is in the Province of Siracusa, and can be reached in about 40 minutes from the larger town. Two different bus companies operate on the route: AST (from Siracusa's Riva della Posta) and Interbus (from Via Trieste). Both buses also stop in Siracusa at the Foro Siracusano (buy tickets at the newsstand by the bus stop).
Noto's principal bus stop is by the Giardino Pubblico, to the east of the centre, at the top of Via Principe di Piemonte. Buses run not only to Siracusa but also to other Sicilian destinations such as Catania and Gela. Further down the road there is also a railway station.

Noto (Sicilian: Notu; Latin: Netum) is a city and comune in the Province of Syracuse, Sicily, Italy. It is 32 kilometres (20 mi) southwest of the city of Syracuse at the foot of the Iblean Mountains. It lends its name to the surrounding area[3] Val di Noto. In 2002 Noto and its church were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Sicilian Baroque is the distinctive form of Baroque architecture which evolved on the island of Sicily, off the southern coast of Italy, in the 17th and 18th centuries, when it was part of the Spanish Empire. The style is recognizable not only by its typical Baroque curves and flourishes, but also by its grinning masks and putti and a particular flamboyance that has given Sicily a unique architectural identity.

Noto (Sicily) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Noto in Sicily.
Noto is a charming town with around twenty thousand inhabitants and is one of the most beautiful enclosed Baroque towns in Sicily. However, many of Noto’s historic buildings were neglected for many years and are thus in somewhat less than perfect condition. The Catedrale Di San Nicolò also fell into disrepair as a result of continued neglect and this caused both the dome and part of the roof to collapse in 1996 since when much has been done to repair the church. An indication of the wealth of Noto’s former upper classes still exists today and the Palazzo Nicolaci Villadorata is one of the town’s most prominent buildings. In spite of its wondersul architecture today Noto leaves a rather sleepy and almost unreal impression on its visitors. Yet perhaps it is the romantic atmosphere caused by its slow decay that makes this Baroque Sicilian jewel so intriguing.
