Catania Audio Tour: Legends, Learning and Lava Stones

Audio guide12 stops

A city scorched by lava and shaped by miracles, Catania hides stories beneath its sunlit stones that most travelers never hear. Headphones on for this self-guided audio tour and unlock a world of rebellious saints, vanished secrets, and centuries-old rivalries. Step away from the guidebook and uncover the real tales swirling through Catania’s volcanic streets. Who broke the cathedral’s silence with a midnight act that changed the city’s fate forever? Which ancient artifact at Basilica Maria Santissima dell'Elemosina is said to protect — or doom — its keepers? And just what happened after a forbidden experiment in the halls of the University of Catania? Trace the aftermath of eruptions, walk where power shifted with a whisper, and feel the heartbeat of a city where the ordinary collides with the extraordinary. Curiosity flickers brighter than Mount Etna’s fires. Press play and plunge into Catania’s hidden drama now.
