The Rodolico shipyard is not just a workplace, but a symbol of tradition and identity. A microcosm where time flows to the rhythm of tools, where the scent of wood mixes with the salty air, and where sea stories are whispered.
The inhabitants of Aci Trezza look to the Rodolico family with admiration and respect; a true community revolves around the shipyard and the family. Custodians of an ancient art passed down from generation to generation, the Rodolico family is a precious heritage to support.

Imagine walking into Palazzo Previtera, a 17th-century masterpiece nestled in the heart of Sicily. The air is thick with history, its ancient walls whispering tales of centuries gone by. Built in 1649, this architectural gem stands as a testament to the island’s rich cultural past. Within these walls, we have designed and hosted Etna Wild Food event, a culinary journey where heritage and flavor blend seamlessly.
In collaboration with the renowned British chef Ben Tish, the experience is designed to awaken your senses. As the aromas of rosemary, thyme, and wild herbs waft through the palazzo’s grand halls, each dish reflects the essence of Sicily, crafted with locally sourced ingredients from the fertile lands around Mount Etna. Paired with fine Sicilian wines, this gastronomic event is an ode to the island’s bounty, offering a dining experience that connects tradition with modern culinary mastery.
Join us next spring and become part of a story where time-honored flavors and historical elegance merge to create an unforgettable feast. This is Etna Wild Food—a celebration of Sicily’s soul, told through food, wine, and timeless beauty.

Salvatore Rodolico, born in 1937, is the direct heir to an ancient tradition—the master shipwright who, for centuries, has worked along the coasts of Sicily, crafting wooden boats and fishing vessels that have sailed the Mediterranean.�He is listed in the Register of Living Human Treasures of Sicily’s Intangible Cultural Heritage.�The project 'The Last Master Shipwright' is our contribution to preserving and promoting this craft by commissioning a wooden boat, likely the last 'sardara trezzota,' with the hope of bringing attention to a trade at risk of disappearing.� Learn more at emotionalsicily.com/rodolico (link in bio)
