Cefalu is situated on the northern coast of Sicily and is a town adored by tourists for its distinctive medieval layout.

The city was established by the Greeks and, following Norman rule, it emerged as one of the most significant centers in Sicily. The delightful old town is filled with stories, legends, and historical events that have contributed to its one-of-a-kind character.<\/strong><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”#servizi” button_text=”Services offered in Cefalu” button_alignment=”center” admin_label=”Pulsante” _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_border_color=”#77a2d4″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”#contatti” button_text=”Contact us for more information” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_border_color=”#77a2d4″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” background_image=”https:\/\/www.sicilyintravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/cosa-fare-a-cefalu.jpg” width=”100%” max_width=”100%” custom_padding=”0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#eeeeee” custom_padding=”40px|80px|40px|80px|true|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]\n

What to see in Cefalu<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While exploring Cefalu, a visit to the Cathedral, constructed in 1130, is an absolute must. Legend has it that King Roger II ordered the construction of the Cathedral after surviving a shipwreck off the city’s shores. The structure showcases the Arab-Norman style, which is typical of this region of Sicily. Inside the cathedral, visitors can marvel at the stunning Byzantine mosaics, featuring the magnificent figure of Christ Pantocrator.
Adjacent to the cathedral is the Rocca, another must-see attraction in Cefalu. The Arab citadel offers stunning views of the coastline, which require a bit of a hike to reach but are well worth the effort.
The medieval Lavatoio is another unmissable destination, where women once came to wash their clothes in ancient times. Visitors can observe the water flowing in small pools before making its way to the sea. Just a short distance away is the Mandralisca Museum, home to archaeological treasures such as vases, amphorae, and a magnificent painting by Antonello da Messina depicting an unknown sailor.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text admin_label=”Testo” _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]\n
