The itinerary can only start from Ibla, the historic center of Ragusa. Here were shot numerous external fiction the beautiful Piazza Duomo and the Cathedral of St. George were often used to represent the main square Vigata, the country of Montalbano. Also nearby Giardini Iblei were filmed scenes linked to several episodes. And how not to make a jump to the restaurant "La Rusticana", aka the Osteria Don Calogero, a favorite haunt of Salvo Montalbano and Mimi Augello. The walk to Ibla can take a pleasant couple of hours giving us time to locate other smaller but equally familiar sights: the Conversation Club, La Rocca Palace and the Church of Santa Maria delle Scale, framed, for example, in the episodes "The arancini di Montalbano "and" the smell of the night. "The most willing, once "climb" the hill that leads to the new town, will venture out in search of other views: the bridge of the Capuchins (reproduced in "The Snack Thief"), Piazza del Popolo and Piazza Poste (shooting it "the Voice of the Violin ").

The Castle of Donnafugata Numerous locations are also found in the surroundings of Ragusa. At about 15 minutes away by car lies the particular characteristic Donnafugata Castle.

Visiting the castle you can also take the large terrace where the commissioner and the boss found a compromise. In the same area you can visit the impressive cave Trabacche, recently made accessible. This is the place where Montalbano finds the bodies of the two lovers in the episode "The terracotta dog"? It is actually an ancient early Christian catacombs.

From the Castle of Donnafugata you can easily reach the seaside village of Punta Secca aka the fraction of Marinella in fiction. There is located the house of Montalbano and them is also the house used for the filming of the exterior, along the beautiful beach where the Commissioner is granted his swim. How do not take advantage of a refreshing bath in our turn?

Leaving Punta Secca you can continue your tour continuing east. The seaside village of Donnalucata has a wonderful promenade which also represented the seafront Vigata episode "The forms of the water." Always on the sea, near Sampieri is an industrial plant abandoned the early '900: the Pisciotto or "The Manyara", place somewhat infamous in the TV series.
