Catania is a city on the East Coast of the island of Sicily in Italy. It is the tenth largest city in Italy. Catania has had a long and eventful history, after being founded in the eighth century BC. The first university in Sicily opened in the city in 1434, and from the 14th century to the time of the Renaissance, Catania was one of Italy’s most important centers of culture, politics, and the arts. Although Catania has a long history of habitation, it has also seen its fair share of natural disasters throughout the years, having been buried by lava a few times in recorded history. Despite this, some ancient buildings have survived, including the 2nd Century Greek-Roman Theatre, among others.
