Etna Case Mangano

Linguaglossa is a town and comune in the Metropolitan City of Catania in Sicily, located on the northern side of Mount Etna where there is also a ski resort with view on the Ionian Sea. It was founded on a lava stream in 1566. The name literally means 'Tongue Tongue', with lingua and γλῶσσα being respectively the Latin and Greek words for 'tongue', but actually derives from lingua grossa, short for grossa lingua di lava 'a big tongue of lava'. Linguaglossa is one of the most renowned destinations in the Etna region, celebrated for its exceptional wine production, Michelin-starred dining experiences, and rich gastronomic culture. Nestled on the northern slopes of Mount Etna, it has become a landmark for food and wine enthusiasts seeking an authentic expression of Sicily’s culinary heritage.

Upon arrival, you'll immediately notice the picturesque landscape, with views of the mountain and the sea in the distance. The town itself is full of beautiful historic architecture, including the stunning Church of San Giuseppe and the Palazzo delle Arti Contemporanee.

One of the highlights of Linguaglossa is the food. The town is known for its wine production, and you can taste some of the best local wines at the Enoteca Provinciale di Linguaglossa. The cuisine is also delicious, with traditional Sicilian dishes like arancini and pasta alla Norma.
