The birthplace of poet Salvatore Quasimodo (1901-1968), Modica is one of the major centers of late Baroque architecture in Sicily.
Just 8 kilometers east lies Cava d’Ispica, where visitors can explore ancient caves, necropolises, troglodyte settlements and the 5th-century catacomb known as Ladreria.
