SUMMARY:Cammino di San Giacomo in Sicilia[FULLY BOOKED]
DESCRIPTION:Cammino di San Giacomo in Sicilia | THIS EVENT IS FULLY BOOKED \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nThe Cammino di San Giacomo in Sicilia is the 2nd segment of the Camino Maltés de Santiago de Compostela and takes us from Caltagirone (Citta’ Jacopea to Sanctuary of St. James in Capizzi). On this cammino we will be assisted  by Toto Trumino\, from the Confraternity of St. James in Sicily and the originator of this heritage walk. \n   \nWe fly to Sicily on 3rd February 2024 (FR367: 11:35 to 12:25) and transfer from the airport to Caltagirone. \nWe have a free afternoon to settle in our respective accommodations and for a short urban hike exploring highlights in this World Heritage city. \n   \nCaltagirone is the Citta Jacopea and the start of the Cammino di San Giacomo in Sicilia. Etymologically\, the name Caltagirone is derived from Arabic qalʿat al-jirār (قلعة الجرار) meaning \,castle of pottery jars’ underlining how far back the pottery tradition goes in this town. Numerous archaeological finds date back to the 2nd millennium BC. In 1030 Arabs built a castle in Caltagirone to fend off attacks by the Byzantine general George Maniakes accompanied by Ligurian allies.  Traces of Ligurian language still exist in the local dialect. \nThe main attractions of the city are the 142-step monumental Staircase of Santa Maria del Monte\, built from 1608 in the old part of the town and the Church of St James the Elder. \n   \nOn the 4th February we will commence the Camino di San Giacomo from the church of St. James and our itinerary over the following days is as follows: \n4th February 2024: Caltagirone – San Michele Ganzaria – Mirabella Mbaccari. Distance: 19km with approximate altitude differences of + 260 m/ – 300 m. Level: Easy to Moderate. \n5th February 2024: Mirabella Mbaccari – Piazza Armerina. Distance: 21km with approximate altitude differences of + 500 m/ – 300 m. Level: Moderate. \n6th February 2024: Piazza Armerina – Valguarnera Caro Pepe. Distance: 19km with approximate altitude differences of + 300 m/ – 380 m. Level: Easy to Moderate. \n7th February 2024: Valguarnera – Assoro. Distance: 25km with approximate altitude differences of + 980 m/ – 680 m. Level: Moderate to Difficult (because of ascent). \n8th February 2024: Assoro – Nissoria – Nicosia. Distance: 25km with approximate altitude differences of + 630 m/ – 680 m. Level: Moderate. \n9th February 2024: Nicosia – Capizzi. Distance: 17km with approximate altitude differences of + 680 m/ – 330 m. Level: Easy to Moderate. \nIn Capizzi we are now in the Province of Messina and close to Cerami\, the site of the famous Norman Battle against the Arabs with the legend of St George as the Matamoros assisting the greatly outnumbered Normans to vistory. Both Ptolemy and Cicero mention Capitum\, Capizzi precursor and it appears that the town had considerable importance during Hellenistic and Roman times together with Haluntium (present-day San Marco d’ Alunzio). \nCapizzi is renown for the Sanctuary of St James the Elder and for the feast of the Saint every year in July. The statue of St. James the Elder is carried on the shoulders by the Capitini making stops in the various churches. During the procession the  “Wall of Miracles” is demolished. We’ll learn of thelLegends surrounding the “Wall of Miracles” during our Cammino. \n10th February 2024: We check out after breakfast and proceed to the airport stopping for lunch en-route. (Flying out on FR396: 17:05 arriving in Malta at17:55). \nThe contribution for this event is Euros 595 per person. \nThe contribution includes hotel / B&B accommodation mostly on bed and breakfast basis (last couple of nights on half-board)\, airport (coach) transfers\, daily coach and baggage transfers during our 7-day stay and a pilgrim kit with Credencial\, Cammino-Patch\, teeshirt and Testimonium and assistance car during our trekking. The cost does not include flights. \nTHIS EVENT IS FULLY BOOKED.

SUMMARY:Cultural Walk: Misterium Fidei\, Valletta
DESCRIPTION:Sunday Heritage: Agostinian Monastery of St Catherine\, Valletta \nWe meet in Palace Square Valletta\, overlooking Archbishop street for a 09:50 departure so that we are at St. Catherine Monastery at 10:00 a.m. \nHISTORY\nIn 1575 a number of young women were living together as a community in the palace of the Marquis Giovanni and Katerina Vasco Oliviero at Valletta. They gathered children in the area with the aim of sheltering them from the evils of the world. They called themselves “Orfani della Misericordia’’ . In 1601 they decided to change their place of residence into a monastery. The monastery was built as solemn thanks for prayers answered\, with the stonework used to build this monastery\, literally dug from underneath it. The open quarry was then turned into the underground complex you will be experiencing. Over hundreds of years\, cloistered nuns made an oath to lead a life of prayer\, contemplation\, and of service. From within the walls of this monastery\, what is probably the last generation of nuns carry on the legacy to this day.The Marquis welcomed the idea and left all his possessions to the community so that his palace could be transformed into a monastery. Pope Pius IX recognised the community as a community of Augustinian nuns in 1849\, and on the 3rd September\, 1851\, 16 nuns made their first Profession. Since 1946 they have been officially recognised as members of the Second Order of Saint Augustine. \n\nOriginally used as a quarry to build the monastery above it\, the underground complex is packed with stories that transcend centuries. From the ribbed vaulted rooms\, the peaceful\, central garden\, the fiery ovens\, and the undisturbed burial place\, this complex is as fascinating as it is unique. From the hustle and bustle of Valletta’s sights and sounds\, this silent\, underground complex is an oasis of peace and tranquillity. Its spaces whisper tales of hard work\, intense prayer\, and care for all those who needed help. As part of your visit to Valletta\, Mysterium Fidei is an authentic experience that cannot be missed. \nCOST\nEuros 8 per person payable at the door. Our members who are licensed guides can enter for free on presentation of their credencials. For liscensed guides that are interested\, we can also share the guide’s script in English. \nREGISTRATION\nAlthough payment will be directly to the museum at the door\, we are still asking for registration by completing the form below so that we can (a.) report back to the museum on expected numbers and (b.) also keep you informed of any news or developments that we would want to share with your regarding this visit. \nINTERESTED\nPlease complete the following form: \nMisterium Fidei - Valletta Cutural VisitPayment will be directly to the museum at the door.

Along the trail\, one can enjoy some lovely panoramic views of the Salina area from one of the vantage points along this trek.\nAfter the trek\, some bites\, soft drinks and water are being provided for the participants.
