“Never has a theatre audience had such a show before them.” Thus wrote Goethe of the Greek Theatre of Taormina in his famous "Italian Journey" travelogue.
The Ancient Theatre of Taormina is the second largest of its kind in Sicily, after the Greek Theatre of Syracuse.
Built in the 3rd century BC, carved out of the hard rock of Monte Tauro, it could welcome thousands of spectators.
The Greeks, who occupied the Taormina area in 403 BC, built the theatre, which was remodelled a century later by the Romans, who had conquered Taormina and made it a Roman colony.
The Ancient Theatre of Taormina is located on a promontory that affords a magnificent view of the Ionian coast and Mount Etna.
The Greeks erected their most important buildings and monuments in harmony with nature. Just as the light and air filtered through the columns, the natural scenery was also perfectly integrated with the architecture of the theatre.
