The fishing village of Aci Trezza is part of the municipality of Aci Castello, in the province of Catania, on the Eastern coast of Sicily.

Catania has been extensively transformed by the consequences of the earthquakes that have raged on this part of Sicily. Its surrounding territory was repeatedly covered by lava flows that reached the sea. But the people of catania stubbornly have it rebuilt on its own rubble. According to the legend, the city was destroyed seven times during its history, but in fact, these disasters can certainly relate to a few but horrifying events.

Mount Etna, also called mongibello, is the highest and most active volcano in Europe. The regular eruptions of the mountain, sometimes dramatic, have made it a subject of great interest for the Greek and roman mythology and folk beliefs that have tried to explain the behavior of the volcano through the various gods and giants of the legends and Greek and roman. Like all volcanoes, mount Etna has been formed over millennia in a process of construction and destruction that started around up to 570,000 years ago. The first eruptions of basaltic lava can be seen in the beautiful outcrops of the Riviera of the Cyclops with the famous Faraglioni diAcitrezza.
