Immerse yourself in the history and culture of Messina, one of Sicily’s major cities, along with its historic center. Situated in the northeast of the island, the downtown area was devastated by the earthquake that occurred on December 28, 1908. The Messina Regional Museum safeguards original adornments and valuable works of art that were salvaged from the ruins of the old city. Exhibits include mosaics, paintings, sculptures, statues, and intricately decorated funerary monuments. The museum’s crowning glories are undoubtedly the works of art by Antonello da Messina, Montorsoli, and Caravaggio, spanning the 15th to 17th centuries. Moreover, the archaeological display offers insight into Messina’s past, tracing its history from its Greek colonial origins (Zancle) to its time as part of the Roman Empire. Don’t overlook the hypogeum complex of the Monastery of Saint Salvatore dei Greci.
