The history of Catania, like any other place in the Mediterranean, is made up by the sequence of cultures passing through, conquering and being conquered by the locals, all leaving their mark in every aspect of life. It was founded by the Greek Chalsidian people in 729 b.c.. After some fierce battles the Siracusans conquered the city and ruled it for many centuries. Eventually and inevitably for the times, Catania ended in the hands of first the Romans and subequently the Byzantines. Next, it was the turn of the Arabs , who arrived in 827 A.D., and 200 years later the Normans paid a visit.
In 1169 the city suffered from a terrible earthquake, and while reconstructing it the locals had to also deal with the aspirations of first Henry the VI and subsequently the Spanish. During the Spanish rule, under Frederic III of Aragon, Catania underwent a cultural revival, symbolised by the founding of the University of Catania in 1434, then called the 'Siculorum Gymnasium'. In 1669 a violent eruption of Etna reminded people of the fickleness of life, and the locals were once more faced with the task of reconstruction.

Paternò is located in proximity to Etna volcano
Paternò is located in proximity to Etna volcano, at 256 m a.s.l. It has a population of some 50,000 inhabitants. It is a city of agricultural importance with outstanding export of citrus fruits and outputs of cereals, vegetables and tomatoes. Industry is as much important, notably the food, pasta and packaging factories. The city is also a thriving craft centre, notably related to moulded clay, lava stone, wrought iron and wood objects.
Here, in 1073, a lava-stone castle was built at Count Roger I’s behest. Restructured during the first half of the 14th century, it can be visited entirely. It features a solid-looking structure with a rising tower. Inside, it is divided into three levels. On the ground floor is a chapel, on the first floor there is an elegant hall graced by four mullioned-windows. Another fine hall with mullioned windows is on the second floor.
