A sacred window perched on a promontory overlooking the sea, one of the most beautiful in Sicily, a city which, although small, enjoyed great fame and glory in its ancient past.

Tindari was chosen by the Greek colonists, besieged by the Romans, conquered by the Byzantines and destroyed by the Arabs.

Despite this it still retains the remains of its immense history which has always been intertwined with myth and popular legends and jealously guards what makes it today unmissable destination in Sicily: the Black Madonna.
