Scicli (gro) Commissario Montalbano not only catches thieves and murderers, but also puts a stop to destructive car and moped traffic. At least in Scicli, the beautiful baroque town in the south of the “Val di Noto”, which stretches from Noto to the south coast of Sicily. In Scicli, a new, large pedestrian zone has now been designated in the historic center of the city on June 1, along which the inclined Montalbano fan can visit and experience numerous locations in whose environment the feisty Commissario has become active. But the main thing is that now the beauty of the picturesque town can be shown to much better advantage, which incidentally also benefits the gastronomy.
Treasures in the southeast of the island.
Series hero Montalbano is, in a sense, the drawing card for the further discovery of the splendor and beauty of Sicilian Baroque and neoclassical architectural treasures in the southeast of the island. One is therefore particularly grateful here, in an area protected by UNESCO as a cultural heritage of humanity, to a now world-renowned Andrea Camilleri and his writing art .
Always remains a piece of uncertainty.
In Scicli, people are convinced that this little town is the “true” town of Montalbano 
. Besides, between Palermo, Syracuse and Trapani you think you know: When Camilleri speaks of Vigata, it is really the port town of Porto Empedokle. And with Montelusa Camillieri means the city Agrigento. But no one can be sure, and the Sicilian writer is a master not only of creating surprises in his criminal cases, but also of leaving his readers in a certain geographical uncertainty despite all the suspense.
