The apartment is located precisely in the previous Jewish neighborhood of ​​Ortigia known as Giudecca, which is one of the most historic sites of the island. In this location there are many sacred Christian buildings that were constructed above ruins of synagogues and underground dungeons. Many of the buildings in this location are characterized by mixed architectural styles: the Sicilian Baroque and the Hebrew Israelite styles, with elements that go back to the Medieval and Renaissance periods. These architectural styles are also demonstrated throughout the narrow alleys and winding streets that make up the Giudecca neighborhood. One of the most attractive places are the Jewish Baths that are located 20 meters below ground level. There you will discover purification basins, where fresh water still flows today. In the near vicinity you can savour some of the best foods the island has to offer with delicious typical Sicilian specialties.
