1. Chiesa di San Bartolomeo
The fabulously voluptuous facade makes a stunning contrast with the limestone cliffs soaring above. An enchanting fusion of the Baroque and rococo lies behind the lace grate doors of this church on the edge of the town's historic center. Inside the single-nave church is a wooden nativity scene that dates back to the 16th century.

2. Chiesa di Sant'Ignazio
Founded in the 17th century as a Jesuit church, this was rebuilt following the 1693 earthquake. Housing the remains of Scicli's patron saint Guglielmo the hermit, a side chapel also hosts the life-size papier-mâché statue of the Madonna su cavallo (on a horse), the Madonna delle Milizie. This is paraded through the streets on the last Saturday in May to celebrate her feast day.

3. Palazzo Beneventano
If the other palazzoli in Scicli simply hint at the luxury of the town's golden age, then this is a full-on assault on the senses. The exterior is covered by stone-carved statues, including representations of mythical creatures and enslaved people that serve as an essential reminder of the town's role in the region's slave trade.

4. Palazzo Bonelli Patanè
Quite plain on the outside, it's easy to walk straight past this gem. But if you venture inside, you'll be overwhelmed by the opulence of the antique furniture, silk wallpapers, and frescoes that adorn the interiors. If you want to see how the high society of Scicli once lived, then this is the place.
