Cefalù

Cefalù on Sicily's north coast fascinates with its unique blend of medieval townscape and Mediterranean coastal location. The Norman Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage site, dominates the town center with its impressive Byzantine mosaics. The winding alleys of the old town lead through a vibrant tapestry of historic stone houses and authentic shops. Above the town rises La Rocca, a distinctive rock that, after an ascent, reveals breathtaking panoramic views and the ruins of the Temple of Diana. At the Museo Mandralisca, you will also find Antonello da Messina's famous "Portrait of an Unknown Man". Ideally, visit Cefalù in the early morning hours to explore the old town and the Cathedral in peace. At the old fishing harbor, numerous restaurants offer fresh local fish dishes that perfectly complement the maritime atmosphere.
