«High up, on top of the steeply sloping rock, one could see, illuminated by the sun, the bell towers, the domes of the churches, the white facades and dark roofs of a group of houses facing right on the edge of the precipice and almost threatening to throw yourself down".
Luigi Capuana thus describes Ispica in his work Profumo. The writer lived in the Iblean city where he began writing The Marquis of Roccaverdina. Right in the quarry, in the shadow of a cliff, surmounted by a castle of which today only ruins remain, was the ancient Ispica .
At 13.30 on 11 January 1693 the fate of the city changed, a terrible earthquake shook and destroyed it. Only a few quarters of the ancient city were rebuilt, the new town was built outside the quarry.
From destruction to beauty
The reconstruction of Ispica followed the late Baroque canons and houses admirable pearls : the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, the church of San Bartolomeo and the Basilica of the Santissima Annunziata. Among the many late Baroque beauties you can also see two notable examples of Art Nouveau architecture : Palazzo Bruno and Palazzo Bruno di Belmonte.
