area: Etna sud

Nicolosi’s history begins in the 12th century, when a Benedictine Monastery dedicated to San Nicolò l’Arena was erected on a former Chapel. This was to be moved to Catania some century later.

Around the monastery soon grew a village that took the name of the religious building, long ruled by the Moncadas from Paternò.

Nicolosi has numerous buildings of architectural and historical interest. The Mother Church, dedicated to the Holy Spirit was largely restructured after the 1669 eruption; it contains several interesting works of art such as a wooden Crucifix and an organ.

The benedictine monastery of San Nicolò l’Arena, at a short distance from town, was built at Frederick II of Aragon’s behest. It is now seat of the Etna Park.

Among the minor churches a mention must go to San Giuseppe’s and the small Anime del Purgatorio’s.

In Nicolosi, where the official guides are centred (095/7914755), begins a nice road that stretches up to the Rifugio Sapienza, from where excursions to the crater start.

Up to the summit of Etna – The route lies through a strangely unnerving landscape with black lava below and blue sky above, relieved occasionally by a white patch of snow or lonely cloud as if for dramatic effect. Before getting to the refuge, a sign points to the Crateri Silvestri, moonlike craters a short walk away, at a height of 1886 m.

Ottimo B&B, gestore molto gentile e disponibile, insomma lo consigliamo senza dubbio. Una nota che può essere d'aiuto per futuri clienti: nella descrizione del B&B è indicata la presenza di un angolo cottura, ragione che ci ha spinto, tra le altre cose, a scegliere questa struttura. Tuttavia, una volta arrivati c'è stato detto che il suo utilizzo è previsto solo nel caso in cui si affitti l'intero appartamento. Riteniamo dunque che la descrizione possa essere migliorata in quanto non chiara riguardo le condizioni di utilizzo della cucina. Detto questo, soggiorno assolutamente perfetto. Translate this text

Siamo stati solo una notte di passaggio, ma ci siamo trovati benissimo: arrivati molto tardi causa problemi di volo, il gestore ci ha aspettato e ci ha fatto trovare tutti i confort (es. acqua). Camera e bagno molto ampi, con un bel soggiorno e uso cucina. Molto comodo per partire verso l'Etna. Translate this text

Al centro della Sicilia posizione ideale per chi vuole girare tutti i posti più belli della Regione. Cucina e stanza ampia e ariosa, bagno in camera, aggiungerei in camera qualcosa dove appoggiare i vestiti un omino o anche delle semplici sedie. Persone gentili, disponibili. Translate this text

La struttura si presenta accogliente e confortevole. Gradevole l'arredamento e comoda la location, al centro del paese ma allo stesso tempo silenziosa e appartata. Il responsabile è gentilissimo, sarà uno dei nostri punti di riferimento per i prossimi soggiorni a Nicolosi e dintorni. Vivamente consigliato. Translate this text
