Militello in Val di Catania. Sciannaca Palace

The Sciannaca palace was built in the neoclassical style during the 1800s in Militello in Val di Catania.

According to local tradition, in this place stood the fourteenth-century Barresi summer palace.

This is the birthplace of the famous Italian presenter Pippo Baudo, a militellese DOC, who was born here in 1936.

The main façade of Palazzo Sciannaca meets along Via Pietro Carrera up to Piazza Sant’Agata.
