Overview
From the classical era to the eighteenth century, among religious buildings and burials, grandiose Roman monuments and underground rivers, popular legends and historical documents ... A fascinating itinerary to retrace all the eras of the Etna city. The traces of a Catania of the past that continues to live under our feet, hidden from our eyes

What you will do
- Anfiteatro Romano
The Black Colosseum, all to explore under the modern city!
45 min
- Chiesa di San Gaetano alle Grotte
One of the most beautiful places in Catania. An ancient lava flow cave, already reused in Greek times as a cistern and then as a catacomb tomb by the Romans. According to tradition, it was the site of the first deposition of Saint Agatha, on which a small church was built as early as 262. Today the crypt still preserves the remains of ancient frescoes and decorations carved directly into the living rock
20 min
- Stop 3
The Amenano, a mysterious underground river that winds under the historic center of Catania, originally flowed to the surface feeding the Lake of Nicito. Over the centuries eruptions, earthquakes and wars have changed not only the urban planning of the city, but also its natural appearance. We will visit a suggestive sliding cave in which a branch of the river still flows
