The beauty towards the sea
Built where the Porto Salvo pier once stood, destroyed by the 1908 earthquake, the Arena dello Stretto is a modern theater heavily inspired by the ancient tradition of Magno-Greek arena theatre.
The arena offers a unique view of the street and Sicily. It is dedicated to Senator Ciccio Franco. Numerous national and international events take place there. At its top, almost in the water, there is a cippo marmoreo (marble arch) built by Bonfiglio and dedicated to Vittorio Emanuele III. dedicated, since the pier of Porto Salvo was the first Italian place to which he went immediately after his proclamation as king. Although built in the 20th century, the arena combines all the aspects that make Greek-style theater unique.
