centuripe

Centuripe is a small Sicilian village of around 5000 inhabitants, in the province of Enna. Observing an image taken from above it is impossible not to immediately notice an impressive resemblance to the silhouette of a person lying on his back, with arms and legs spread apart. Given its small size, it is worth saying that it is truly a village on a human scale!

However, perceptions are always very subjective. In fact, there are also those who associate the image of Centuripe more commonly with the shape of a starfish. Technically, it is said that its plan is polylobed, meaning that from the center of the town the town develops in various ramifications towards multiple directions; five, in this case.
