ADDAURA ART In Sicily we say Tourism is Culture. It is a pleasure for us to meet culture and art from the prehistoric to our days. Artists are able to give us big emotions, make us exceed every type of limit and enter in a different and deeper dimension of life. In our meeting rooms, restaurant and outside spaces also nearby the swimming pool, with the Mediterranean scents, we offer to our clients and artists the opportunity to meet and exchange opinions. General manager Architect Massimo Coraci

Kilometric distances: 15 minutes by foot from Mondello and Valdesi, 15 minutes with a mean of transport from Palermo (centre of the city Via Liberta). We suggest these routes by car: From the High Way: A19 Catania Palermo and A29 Trapani Palermo Take the exit to Tommaso Natale and follow the directions to Mondello. When you arrive to Valdesis traffic circle, in front of the beach, turn right towards Addaura. In front of Roosevelts small port there is the Addaura Hotel. From Palermos Port: From the ports exit turn right and follow the street Via dei Cantieri (direction Villa Igiea). When you pass the small towns Acqua Santa, Arenella and Vergine Maria, continue through the Addauras shore to the Addaura Hotel Residence.

The Addaura's caves (called anciently Allaura) are the most ancient human presence in the gulf of Mondello. The Graffiti discovered in the caves were traced 14.000 years ago by artists who for the first time in the world showed us their tribal activities. The caves, of marine origin, are situated on the north side of Mount Pellegrino at about 500 metres from where we are, under a rocky part of the mountain where there is the sound of birds and a beautiful view. The caves are divided into 2 parts: the first one is on the west side where there is a small cavity and two caves called first and second; in the second part there is another small cave, and the third cave also called Caprara. This last one, which is the biggest cave, is formed by a particular cavern of stalactite, never inhabited by man, and by a huge cave which has been used as a stable, now empty of its archaeological remains, where there are some traces of fossils also of Elephas melitensis. On the oriental wall of the second cave there are the famous graffiti composed by thirty figures, seventeen humans and thirteen animals. The animals, almost all equines, are designed in naturalistic style, some with realistic vivacity and others with a schematic design. The most beautiful one is a horse without a head, instead the most complete one is represented by a mare. The Addaura's fauna is also represented by deers. As the style, also the incision technique of the graffiti changes: all of the figures' incisions are thin except the deer designed with a deeper incision, similar to the human figures. It is difficult to understand the meaning of these designs which probably represent something ritual. The graffiti are divided in three pictures different one from another. In the biggest one there are two young naked humans performing acrobatic dances, surrounded by other seven figures. All the characters have long hair and masks of birds. Some studious think that this design symbolizes rites of puberty or of prison. The second picture represents a deer with a naked hunter with long hair and a strange mask. We used this design as the symbol of our. The third picture has three figures: a female one with a big object on the shoulder and two male ones. The Addaura's graffiti represent Palaeolithic art and are the most interesting of the world.
