Vittoria, Agricultural commune in southeastern Sicily, Italy

The town extends across 181 square kilometers between the Hyblean plateau and Mediterranean coastline, featuring wide streets in a geometric pattern at 168 meters elevation.

Countess Vittoria Colonna Enriquez established this settlement in 1607, granting privileges that supported rapid development despite the 1693 earthquake impact.

The town maintains traditional crafts through detailed embroidery practices that originated during the period of Arab rule in Sicily.

The municipality contains Europe's largest fruit and vegetable market, specializing in tomato production and distribution throughout the continent.

Local vineyards produce Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG wine from native Nero d'Avola and Frappato grapes, representing Sicily's first DOCG designation.
