The city’s old town center is a place waiting to be discovered, to be experienced. Here can you take in and appreciate the city’s history thanks to its many Renaissance and Baroque monuments; the streets and time-weathered stone walls all make for a unique and stirring landscape.

To complete the artistic/cultural works, about 5 kilometers away in the outskirts of the town we find the enchanting Villa Romana del Casale, which has been recently acknowledged by UNESCO as a World Heritage. The Villa Imperiale del Casale in Piazza Armerina boasts 60 rooms and 3,500 square meters of floor mosaics dating back to Roman times.

Another of Armerino’s famous attractions is the Norman Palio, an event where the four medieval districts compete for the Banner of the city’s patron saint, Maria SS. delle Vittorie, during the mid-August holiday.
