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.

And good George,
You "passed" by and you did not ... hear! :-D
Nice picture with a nice pdr and a nice composition accompanied by a beautiful ... caption!
Perhaps, for my "deformation" :-D and personal taste, I would have kept a bit 'sharpening'!
A good greeting and a good 1 May,
Paul

Paul near by way of saying, Grammichele is in the province of Catania
But closer to Ragusa.
Thank you for your welcome comment!
The "sharpening" ... maybe you're right.
