Caltagirone

Caltagirone sicily

The epicenter of ceramics in southeastern Sicily, Caltagirone can be visited en route to Palazzo Amerina. The piece de resistance is a massive staircase whose steps are all lined in the region’s ceramics, done traditionally in swirls of blues, greens and yellows. If you can’t make it to Caltagirone, there’s a very good shop in Taormina (Managò), which works with twenty or so of Caltagirone’s best artists.
