Avola Apartments & Villas (Sicily)

Avola is 30 km south of Syracuse on the East coast of Sicily and readily accessible from Catania airport. This is an area with some lovely sandy beaches and a good location for a self catering holiday in a Sicilian apartment or villa in this area of south east Sicily.

Avola, in the province of Siracusa, was rebuilt after the 1693 earthquake into a modern grid of perpendicular streets within an hexagonal perimeter. A large and square piazza with nearby minor ones marks the heart of town, according to the typical Renaissance design.

Visitors can enjoy several fine churches such as Chiesa Madre dedicated to San Nicola di Bari. Its frontage is graced with panels representing the Seven Sacrements. The fa?ade, is so-called a torre (towered) because it is divided into three tiers. The courtyard is embellished with some statues representing Saints. The interior is divided into three naves with chapels, and is ornamented with fine pieces of art such as the painting depicting the Sposalizio della Madonna attributed to Olivo Sozzi.
