Finally, the last pearl on the string of the Noto Valley’s cities is represented by magnificent Scicli, where churches and patrician villas make for a visibly-striking urban panorama. Specifically, Palazzo Beneventano (especially its glorious facade) is an architectonic and artistic masterpiece. Sicli is one of the central highlights of the Sicilian baroque and of the Ragusa coast. Finely-decorated balconies display their ironmongery and flower decorations, while portals are carved with elegant moldings. Frames and friezes complete the design, mainly characterized by refined city buildings – of which Palazzo Beneventano is one of the best examples. Three structures assembled together in a pyramidal form compose the exterior of the monumental Church of San Bartolomeo, the “queen” of Sicli.
