Description
HISTORY of CEFALU' - Sicily - Italy
One of the jewels of the Sicilian coast, Cefalu´ is dramatically sited on a headland, under a great, sheltering, rocky outcrop overlooking the Aeolian Islands. It is from these two features, the headland and head shaped rock, that Cefalu' the name is thought to derive, from the Greek Kephale, or head. In a prime coastal location it was settled by the Sikels, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines and Arabs before the Normans arrived in the 11th Century and built the dramatic cathedral which gives the town its heart. Cefalu's narrow streets, full of character and lined with traditional Sicilian shops and restaurants, and beautiful central square, invite holiday-mood meanderings. In more recent years it has become a very popular holiday resort, but it has retained a bustling fishing village atmosphere and a rare combination of outstanding monuments and beautiful sandy beaches, some of the best of Sicily's beaches.
