About Catania
Catania
Catania is located on Sicily's east coast, facing the Ionian Sea at the base of the active volcano Mount Etna. Catania was founded in the 8th century BC by Chalcidian Greeks in Magna Graecia. During the 14th century, and into the Renaissance period, Catania was one of Italy's most important cultural, artistic and political centres. Catania hosts Sicily's first university, founded in 1434. Catania today is the industrial, logistical, and commercial center of Sicily. Its airport, the Catania–Fontanarossa Airport, is the largest in Southern Italy. The central "old town" of Catania features exuberant late-baroque architecture, prompted after the 1693 earthquake, and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
