Places to see in ( Modica - Italy )
Places to see in ( Modica - Italy )
Modica is a city and comune of 54.456 inhabitants in the Province of Ragusa, Sicily, southern Italy. The city is situated in the Hyblaean Mountains. Modica has neolithic origins and it represents the historical capital of the area which today almost corresponds to the Province of Ragusa. Until the 19th century it was the capital of a County that exercised a so wide political, economical and cultural influence as it has been counted among the most powerful feuds of the Mezzogiorno.
Today Modica is well-known for its rich repertoire of culinary specialities, especially the typical chocolate inspired by an aztec recipe, and for its historical centre. Rebuilt following the devastating earthquake of 1693, its architecture has been recognised as providing outstanding testimony to the exuberant genius and final flowering of Baroque art in Europe and, along with other towns in the Val di Noto, is part of UNESCO Heritage Sites in Italy.
According to Thucydides, the city was founded in 1360 BC or 1031 BC and was inhabited by the Sicels in the 7th century BC. It was probably a dependency of Syracuse. Modica was occupied by the Romans after the battle of the Egadi islands against the Carthaginians in the Punic Wars 241 BC, together with Syracuse and all of Sicily. Modica became one of the thirty-five decuman (spontaneously submitted) cities of the island and was oppressed by the praetor Verres.
Modica consists of two urban centres, Modica Alta (Upper Modica) and Modica Bassa (Lower Modica). The older upper part is perched on the rocky top of the southern Ibeli hill, the lower part is built on the lower slopes and valley below. The walk down from Modica Alta to Modica Bassa reveals vistas of the lower town and involves many steps; not many attempt the reverse journey on foot.
During the last century the city has extended and developed new suburbs which include Sacro Cuore (or Sorda), Monserrato, Idria, these are often referred to as Modern Modica; both old and modern quarters of the city are today joined by one of Europe's higher bridge, the Guerrieri bridge, 300 metres (980 ft) long.
Despite being ravaged by earthquakes in 1613 and 1693, and floods in 1833 and 1902, Modica has retained some of the most beautiful architecture in Sicily. Much of the city was rebuilt after the 1693 earthquake with imposing and conspicuous urban monuments in the Sicilian Baroque style. The large Baroque Cathedral San Giorgio is dedicated to St George. While the cathedral was rebuilt following the earthquake of 1693, like many other parts of the city its roots are in the Middle Ages. From the front of the Cathedral a staircase of 300 steps leads down towards Modica Bassa.
Another notable church is San Pietro, dedicated to St Peter, in Modica Bassa, featuring a principal façade crowned by a typical Sicilian Baroque belltower, 49 metres (161 ft) high.
Other sights include:
Castello dei Conti (Castle)
Chiesa del Carmine
Church of St. Mary of Betlehem
Garibaldi Theater
Mercedari Palace -contains a museum and library
The economy of the area once principally agricultural producing olives, carobs, legumes, cereals, and cattle; an extraordinary and unique product is the famous chocolate of Modica, produced with an ancient and original Aztec recipe. The city has now been joined by factories producing textiles, furniture and cars. Tourism is also an important industry to the area, since Modica entered the UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2002.
The eighteenth century saw Modica in the role of art and culture town, counting philosophers (Tommaso Campailla), poets (Girolama Grimaldi Lorefice), a school of medicine (Campailla, Gaspare Cannata, Michele Gallo, the Polara family) and literary academies among its inhabitants. In the nineteenth century, feudalism was abolished and Modica became a bourgeois town peopled by notables such as the writer and anthropologist Serafino Amabile Guastella, the agronomist Clemente Grimaldi, the musician Pietro Floridia and many painters, historians and other intellectuals. Modica was also the birthplace of writer Salvatore Quasimodo, recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1959.

Hi. Welcome to The Roman Guy’s neighborhood series. Rome is split up into many different districts. Today, I’m in the Campo de’ Fiori neighborhood.
I love the Campo de’ Fiori Neighborhood because it hosts so many of the best things to do in Rome -including bars, museums, restaurants and shops.
To be completely accurate, Campo de’ Fiori is a piazza, but since it is the epicenter of so much Roman activity and nightlife, locals unofficially refer to the neighborhood as Campo or Campo de’ Fiori.
If you watched our other Rome neighborhood videos, you know that Rome is split up into 22 districts called Rione. The Campo de’ Fiori Neighborhood is located between two districts called Rione Regola and Rione Parione. Campo de’ Fiori means literally, field of the flowers.
You can see the Vatican City in the top left of this map. The Spanish Steps are located in the top center and the Colosseum and Roman Forum are in the bottom right. Campo de’ Fiori is central to all three of these top attractions in Rome, reachable in about 10 to 15 minutes from each location by bus. You can find details on which busses to take in the accompanying Hidden Gems Guide to Rome – Campo de’ Fiori blog post.
Campo de’ Fiori is known for its produce and open-air food market in the daytime and some of the best nightlife in Rome when the sun sets. The market closes in the early afternoon and the surrounding bars and restaurants extend their seating out into the piazza.
If you arrive before 7:00 PM, you’ll see many bars displaying aperitivo, which is a free buffet of snacks to tide you over while you enjoy a drink.
The daytime market has only been there since 1869. It was previously in Piazza Navona before they moved it, but the area has always been known for its commercial routes.
The surrounding roads are even named after the trades performed on those particular roads. Via del Balestrari is known for crossbow-makers. Via dei Baullari is known for coffer-makers. Via dei Cappellari is known for hat-makers. Via dei Chiavari is known for key-makers.
Prior to becoming a market, Campo was known for its executions, that’s right, most famously for that of Giordano Bruno on February 17th, 1600. He elaborated upon the Copernican theory saying that the stars were actually distant suns with exoplanets of their own.
He even mentioned these stars may be able to foster life of their own. His theory concluded that the universe was infinite and could have no celestial body at its center, directly conflicting with the Church’s teachings, punishable by death.
Besides the stands in the center, there are many authentic Italian food shops in the area. La Antica Norceria Viola is a 126-year-old, family owned and operated shop that sells cured meats.
Although not operated by its original owners, il Forno Campo de’ Fiori has been supplying bread products to the area since at least 1890.
Adjacent to the busy Piazza Campo de’ Fiori is Piazza Farnese. The focal point of the square is Palazzo Farnese. It was once the home of the Farnese dynasty, but today is the French Embassy.
The piazza is also home to the two large fountains that were once bathtubs in Ancient Roman baths, the Baths of Caracalla.
Via Giulia was created in Rome over 500 years ago by Pope Julius II. It was the first example of modern urbanization in the city since antiquity.
My final recommendation is one of the best local restaurants in Campo de’ Fiori – a place called Der Pallaro.
