Licata, Coastal commune in southern Sicily, Italy
The city extends along 20 kilometers of Mediterranean coastline, offering sandy beaches to the east and rocky shores to the west.
The settlement originated as a Phoenician trading post between the 12th and 8th centuries BC before becoming a Roman commercial port for grain exports.
The Teatro Re Grillo, constructed in 1922, represents the Liberty architectural style and functions as the primary cultural venue for theatrical performances.
The local economy centers on agriculture, with extensive production of vegetables and cereals, supplemented by sulfur mining and chemical fertilizer manufacturing.
The Castel Sant'Angelo, constructed by Spanish rulers in the 1500s, stands on a hilltop overlooking the Gulf of Gela and the Salso River mouth.
