About Catania
Catania sits on the slopes of Mount Etna, the largest active volcano in Europe, with a baroque city centre rebuilt after the 1693 earthquake using the volcano's own black lava stone. Fontanarossa Airport (CTA) is Sicily's busiest, making it the most practical entry point for both eastern Sicily and the Greek ruins of Agrigento to the southwest.
