Luigi Pirandello House Museum
The birthplace of Luigi Pirandello - rural construction of the eighteenth century - is located in a country district, overlooking the sea, called "Caos", on the border between the municipalities of Agrigento and Porto Empedocle.
Declared a national monument in 1949, it was purchased in 1952 by the Sicilian Region, which oversaw its restoration and arrangement. Luigi Pirandello was born there on June 28, 1867: the family took refuge here to escape the cholera epidemic that raged in Sicily that year.
In the rooms on the upper floor, the documents that mark the stages of the writer's literary production are exhibited, starting with his youthful high school period.
