The sundial of Grammichele. sent on April 19, 2017 (16:29) by Giorgio Occhipinti. 131 comments, 2790 views. [retina]

, 1/250 f/11.0, ISO 100, hand held.

Questo splendido orologio solare orizzontale, probabilmente uno dei più grandi al mondo, si trova nella piazza a centro del paese di Grammichele. La caratteristica di questa grande piazza è la sua forma esagonale, attraversata da sei strade che si staccano tutte al centro dei lati dell'esagono. Il comune di Grammichele si trova alle pendici dei Monti Iblei e dista 43 km da Ragusa e 68 da Catania, che ne è il capoluogo. Fu distrutta dal tristemente famoso terremoto del 1693 insieme a mezza Sicilia. Il merito della ricostruzione va a don Carlo Maria Carafa, principe di Butera e Roccella, al quale fu dedicata la grande piazza esagonale.
