Vittoria, located on the picturesque southern Sicily plain, overlooks the scenic Ippari River and is enveloped by lush vineyards. Despite its official establishment in 1607, signs of ancient civilizations from the Bronze Age still linger in this remarkable town. In an ode to the viceroy's daughter, Vittoria was named, commemorating her influence and charm. The city's patron, St. John the Baptist, is celebrated on the first Sunday of July, an occasion cherished by the local community.
