City information

Siracusa is an ancient town on the sea, which was of immense importance as Greek Syracuse. It has a superb archaeological zone and a lovely historic centre on the island of Ortigia. The town of Syracuse occupies an extremely beautiful position between the waters of the Great Port, the only natural harbour to be found along all the Sicilian coast, and the Iblei mountains. It was founded in the VIII century BC, by a group of Greek settlers from Corinth, led by Archia, although a number of remains discovered in the area of the Cathedral Square show that the zone was already occupied in the XIV century BC. Siracusa is a pleasant town, with plenty to occupy tourists for at least a couple of days. It's also a good base for seeing the south-eastern corner of Sicily, including the Baroque towns of Ragusa and Noto, several archaeological sites, and the lively city of Catania.

The name Syracuse comes from the Greek word Sirako, meaning swamp; the present-day city has a population of 127,000, divided among the five residential areas of the ancient Pentapolis of Dionysius ; the Greek-named Akradina, Tike, Neapolis and Ortigia, and Santa Lucia, and, to the south, at Cassibile along the river of that name, two tiny hamlets, which the Greeks called Kakiparys and Belvedere, not far from the Eurialo Castle.
