Naro, Morillo palace, Sicilian baroque at its best

Here we are in Naro the “Fulgentissima“ as Frederick II liked to call it, Italian Capital of Culture 2025. We are in the province of Agrigento, a few kilometers from the Valley of the Temples and the splendid Sicilian sea. A town where the Baroque reaches one of the highest expressions in Sicily with its monuments, churches and palaces to the delight of inhabitants, tourists and lovers of culture and architecture.
Here is located Palazzo Morillo, a Baroque building from the 1700s, between the main Corso Vittorio Emanuele the Via Specchi and the Via Riolo. What we are about to visit today is the main floor of an ancient mansion, a splendid expression of 18th-century Baroque as well as one of the main and elegant palaces in the city.
The entrance is from Via Riolo through a carved wooden doorway. An imposing marble staircase enriched with arches and columns leads us to the floor consisting of eight large rooms, kitchen services while the external facade is enriched by as many as 7 balconies with stone base with fine moldings friezes and decorations.
Internal stairs lead us to the upper floor where we find an additional service and the beautiful terrace from which to admire the picturesque old town and the sea.
This historic home covers an area of more than 400 square meters and going from one room to another is a unique experience where you can admire the sought-after ceramics that in each room compose a different and characteristic design or optical effect under your feet, while your gaze will be lost in the high frescoed ceilings. You will be able to breathe a sophisticated and elegant atmosphere and relive the emotions of the past.
Stuccoes, plaster Baroque finishes follow one another from room to room, just as the light will seem to chase you, thanks to the excellent exposure on three sides, as well as the large windows that provide warm and enveloping natural light all day long.
The property is vacant, divisible and in need of renovation, except for the roof that has been totally replaced recently.
One cannot only fall in love with this house, one must give it the due respect for its noble and ancient origins, restoring luster to the splendid interior floors, recovering the fixtures of fine period wood and not forgetting that even the frescoes deserve to return to their ancient splendor .
For the splendid central location, size and intrinsic characteristics I leave it up to you to choose what best suits your needs: prestigious luxury residence? Tourist accommodation business? Enchanting event location?
Certain is that a well-wishing inscription “Long live Divine Providence forever 1790“ an inscription on stone below the largest balcony will accompany you in your new home.
