To perpetuate a Circle that since 1782 had stood out for its many charitable and cultural activities in favor of citizenship, for the Italian and foreign personalities that were guests there and for the \u201cliterary salon\u201d, of which Giovanni Verga was one of the most eminent members, on December 26, 1884, the Circle of the Union 1884 was founded,<\/strong> with \u201cthe aim of bringing together those who will be part of it at brilliant conferences<\/em>\u201d. (Art.1 Statute) <\/span><\/p>\n

The Circle of Union participates in the life of Catania and the Province in its historical, cultural and artistic aspects; it promotes cultural and social events as well as friendly meetings and hospitality, facilitating relationships with visitors to the City. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Circle of the Union took up its first headquarters in the same rooms that housed the ancient \u201cCircle of the Nobles\u201d of 1782 at the Palazzo dei Duchi di Carcaci in Via Etnea, already at the time the most elegant and lively part of the city.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1675452140788{margin-left: 40px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”16827″ img_size=”220×220″ alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/www.circolounionecatania.it\/en\/”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row simple_background_color=”#fbf9f9″ css=”.vc_custom_1699198781337{margin-top: 50px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner row_content_width=”grid”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1699360404450{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”16875″ img_size=”500×500″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow” onclick=”link_image” css=”.vc_custom_1699198703413{margin-right: 30px !important;border-top-width: 2px !important;border-right-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-left-width: 2px !important;border-left-color: #ffffff !important;border-right-color: #ffffff !important;border-top-color: #ffffff !important;border-bottom-color: #ffffff !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1699360332518{margin-top: 30px !important;}”]

The new headquarters built in V.le Regina Margherita in a vaguely Gothic-Moorish style, according to the taste of the time, included two tennis courts, an avenue that served as a gallop, a large grass space. <\/span><\/p>\n

After the war, the Circle moved to Palazzo \u201cMusmeci\u201d, in V.le XX Settembre and then, in the 1960s, the Circle found its headquarters in Via Etnea 289 and in 1979, at number 101 of the same street. <\/span><\/p>\n
