The eight towns of southeastern Sicily: Caltagirone, Militello Val di Catania, Catania, Modica, Noto, Palazzolo, Ragusa and Scicli, were all rebuilt on or next to the towns where they were when the earthquake struck in 1693. They represent a considerable collective undertaking that has managed to achieve a high level of architectural and artistic achievement. They retain the late Baroque style of the time and also display unique innovations in town planning and urban architecture.
