This Roman site is massive, spread over a large area. It is ruined but enough remains to give a good idea of the layout of the Agora and the houses which looked down upon it.Sadly almost all of the signs are vandalised, those which aren't do not do the site justice. There are some mosaics preserved and the scenery surrounding the area is stunning.Be sure to take your own info as a man in the car park will try to sell you his homemade guide, and inside the site there is little info.There is room for a lot of improvement here but the site itself is worth a visit definitely.

The ancient Greek city in Morgantina, Aidone area of Sicily may be lesser known to other more renowned sites in the area, such as the Villa Romana del Casale. The city houses Greek baths, a small amphitheater, various remains of dwellings including mosaics. Worth visiting.

Ancient Greek city - we were only visitors - so if you like wild, romantic ruins this is for you. There is a well preserved theatre and the site has fabulous views of Etna

The ruins of Morgantina dating from the Greek and Roman periods give you a good overview of what a town of this size actually looked like. While only the outlines and lower walls remain, the layout of the marketplace and other structures are easily understood. The theater, dating to the 4th century BC, could seat about 1000 spectators. We visited with a university professor who does guide work in Sicily, so we did not depend on signs for explanation. Do a little research first if you are visiting on your own.

This archeological site was THE place where I could feel the history, the place, the island ----- it was simply magical.

This is a little gem of a museum and not merely because of the wonderful pieces recently given back by the Getty and the Met. It is small, nicely laid out (almost Tuscan in form from the outside), and we found it far more interesting than the Archaelogical Museum in Siracusa. Certainly our granddaughter loved it, whereas I am sure she would have swiftly found the museum at Siracusa overwhelming. On the first Sunday of the month the entrance is free, though please check if they intend to close at 2.00pm – when we visited in October this was the case.

As others have commented, many signs are in an illegible state which is unfortunate but it doesn't take away the magic of visiting this remote site and realizing that it was a thriving Greek city 2,500 years ago.Given the high price of admission tickets to archaeological sites here and elsewhere in Sicily, one would wish that funding could be provided to redo the signage and to make this site more accessible since it is well worth visiting.

At first as you walk the trail it seems disappointing, nay incomprehensible. But keep walking and around a bend, shazzam, a whole city lies before you, starting with a well preserved theater. The signage explains things well in Italian and English. We were there at noon in October and the heat was starting to get to me. I think it would be pretty brave to go in high summer.

Like many others who have been to the archaeological site at Morgantina, I thought the park was beautiful but is in need of some major work. Many of the ruins are completely overgrown with plants and weeds that it is difficult to make out what I was even looking at and most of the signs are damaged beyond the point of reading. With that being said, however, this was a wonderful addition to a day at the Villa Romana del Casale. The park provides a nice bit of wilderness with some truly beautiful ruins. I do wish in the coming years more effort is put into the park in order to preserve the beauty and attract more tourists. Note: the ticket prices have recently gone up in all archaeological parks of Sicily, Villa Romana the biggest jump going from 4,50 euro to 14,00 euro a ticket. However, buying a combination ticket at the park in Morgantina can gain access to Morgantina, Aidone, and Villa Romana for the combined price of 14,00 euro.
