Siramuse is an immersive museum in Syracuse where history, science, art and myth come alive through the stories of those who have lived in this unique city. From Caravaggio\u2019s dramatic light to Archimedes\u2019 genius, from Plato\u2019s dialogues to Paolo Orsi\u2019s archaeology: each room offers a narrative and sensory cultural experience across eras and ideas. Iconic figures such as Frederick\u202fII, with his falcon and cosmic vision, Saint Lucy and her light, Enzo Maiorca with his sea and sporting and environmental challenges make Siramuse an exciting journey through Syracuse\u2019s history. Thanks to innovative technologies and immersive installations, the historical and artistic heritage is transformed into a unique interactive experience. And the story continues outside, in the restored courtyard, with Claudio Palmieri\u2019s site\u2011specific artwork: a direct link to the more recent history of the site, which hosted contemporary art and design. Siramuse is not a traditional museum: it is a gallery of narratives, an emotional atlas inviting you to rediscover Syracuse through what makes it special.<\/p>\n

During the Roman siege of 212 BC he defended the city with extraordinary inventions. He was killed despite orders to spare him.

Despite failed attempts, his thought ignited an enduring reflection on the link between governance and knowledge.<\/p>\n Aeschylus<\/strong>, father of Greek tragedy, experienced the era of the Persian Wars and the rise of Athenian democracy. His dramas blend poetry and civic commitment, dealing with justice, fate and war. In Syracuse he found natural settings and scenic innovations absent in Athens.

In Syracuse his name remains a symbol of courage and commitment.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”federico-2-di-svevia” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”custom” background_image_width=”300px” background_position=”top_left” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”100px||0px||false|false” scroll_blur=”0|30|60|100|100px|0px|0px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-8c5e995b-d064-4946-9128-c87d5681bfcc%22:%91%22background_color%22,%22background_color%22,%22background_color%22%93,%22gcid-ffcb5cd3-66ba-4fa1-98f2-b3c8f992ee0f%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” max_width=”none” custom_margin=”80px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”0px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”0px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_image=”https:\/\/siramuse.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/qgreenok.png” background_size=”custom” background_image_width=”23%” background_position=”top_left” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” background_last_edited=”on|desktop” background_image_tablet=”https:\/\/siramuse.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/qgreenok.png” background_image_phone=”https:\/\/siramuse.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/qgreenok.png” background_enable_image_tablet=”on” background_enable_image_phone=”on” background_size_tablet=”initial” background_size_phone=”custom” background_image_width_tablet=”45%” background_image_width_phone=”50%” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”tabind” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” link_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font=”|800|||||||” header_2_font_size=”5rem” header_3_font_size=”2.5rem” text_orientation=”right” max_width=”70%” max_width_tablet=”700px” max_width_phone=”700px” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”right” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”30px||0px||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”200px|5%|40px|5%|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|||||false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” sticky_position=”top” sticky_limit_bottom=”row” scroll_vertical_motion=”0|40|40|100|-25.5|0|0″ scroll_horizontal_motion=”0|50|50|100|20|0|0″ scroll_fade=”0|42|42|100|0|100|100″ hover_enabled=”0″ header_2_font_size_tablet=”5rem” header_2_font_size_phone=”3em” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_3_font_size_tablet=”2.5rem” header_3_font_size_phone=”1.6rem” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” sticky_position_tablet=”none” sticky_position_phone=”none” sticky_position_last_edited=”on|desktop” scroll_horizontal_motion_tablet=”0|50|50|100|0|0|0″ scroll_horizontal_motion_phone=”0|50|50|100|0|0|0″ scroll_horizontal_motion_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” header_3_font_size__sticky_enabled=”off|desktop” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Frederick II of Swabia, a medieval emperor, was a legislator, patron and man of science and art. Syracuse welcomed him repeatedly, making it\u2014alongside Palermo\u2014a centre of his cultural\u2011economic policies. The Maniace Castle is his most visible legacy, symbol of the strategic role of the city. From Syracuse he promoted laws and founded in 1224 the University of Naples, the first secular university in Europe. An encyclopedic spirit, he studied medicine, poetry, law\u2014and falconry, to which he devoted De arte venandi cum avibus<\/em>. His legacy still shapes the history of Syracuse and the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_css_main_element=”margin:auto” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/siramuse.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Federico-2-di-Svevia-hpk.png” alt=”Siramuse Il Volo del Falco: Federico II di Svevia” title_text=”Siramuse; Il Volo del Falco Federico II di Svevia” align=”right” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”5%||5%||true|false” scroll_blur=”0|40|60|100|20px|0px|0px” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-b9993519-c8c2-4b62-b25e-3cef780d6130%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”paolo-orsi” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”100px||0px||false|false” scroll_blur=”0|30|60|100|100px|0px|0px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-8c5e995b-d064-4946-9128-c87d5681bfcc%22:%91%22background_color%22,%22background_color%22%93}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” width=”100%” max_width=”none” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-acdf48c5-e3af-4058-baca-59666317ef9b%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/siramuse.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Paolo-Orsi-hpc.png” alt=”Siramuse Lo Scavo archeologico: Paolo Orsi” title_text=”Siramuse; Lo Scavo archeologico Paolo Orsi” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” scroll_blur=”0|40|60|100|20px|0px|0px” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-b9993519-c8c2-4b62-b25e-3cef780d6130%22:%91%22background_color%22,%22background_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”custom” background_image_width=”8%” background_position=”bottom_left” background_repeat=”repeat-x” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/siramuse.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/qorangeok.png” alt=”Siramuse: Paolo Orsi” title_text=”Siramuse Paolo Orsi” disabled_on=”off|off|off” admin_label=”floatArchim” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” positioning=”absolute” position_origin_a=”top_right” vertical_offset=”0px” z_index=”0″ vertical_offset_tablet=”-1000px” vertical_offset_phone=”-560px” vertical_offset_last_edited=”on|phone” position_origin_a_tablet=”top_right” position_origin_a_phone=”top_right” position_origin_a_last_edited=”on|phone” position_origin_f_tablet=”” position_origin_f_phone=”” position_origin_f_last_edited=”on|phone” position_origin_r_tablet=”” position_origin_r_phone=”” position_origin_r_last_edited=”on|phone” width=”100%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”150px” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” max_width=”230px” max_width_tablet=”340px” max_width_phone=”200px” max_width_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”90px||||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” positioning_tablet=”absolute” positioning_phone=”absolute” positioning_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text module_class=”tabind” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” link_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font=”|800|||||||” header_2_font_size=”5rem” header_3_font_size=”2.5rem” width_last_edited=”off|desktop” max_width=”70%” max_width_tablet=”700px” max_width_phone=”700px” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”left” custom_padding_tablet=”40px|5%|0px|5%|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|||||false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” sticky_position=”top” sticky_limit_bottom=”row” scroll_vertical_motion=”0|40|40|100|-25.5|0|0″ scroll_horizontal_motion=”0|50|50|100|20|0|0″ scroll_fade=”0|42|42|100|0|100|100″ hover_enabled=”0″ header_2_font_size_tablet=”5rem” header_2_font_size_phone=”3em” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_3_font_size_tablet=”2.5rem” header_3_font_size_phone=”1.6rem” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” sticky_position_tablet=”none” sticky_position_phone=”none” sticky_position_last_edited=”on|desktop” scroll_horizontal_motion_tablet=”0|50|50|100|0|0|0″ scroll_horizontal_motion_phone=”0|50|50|100|0|0|0″ scroll_horizontal_motion_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” header_3_font_size__sticky_enabled=”off|desktop” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Paolo Orsi, born in Rovereto, is considered the father of archaeology in southern Italy. He chose Sicily and Magna Graecia as the focus of his passion and work. He was welcomed in Syracuse, where he introduced a stratigraphic method to the excavations at Pantalica, Megara Hyblaea and Camarina. He coordinated his research with rigor, leaving hundreds of notebooks full of notes and drawings. From 1891 he directed the Archaeological Museum of Syracuse, now named after him. His work made archaeology a modern and methodical discipline.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Siramuse Siramuse is an immersive museum in Syracuse where history, science, art and myth come alive through the stories of those who have lived in this unique city.
