  3. The Val di Noto owes its fame to the reconstruction which underwent after the year 1693, when the entire area was decimated by an enormous earthquake. Following the earthquake, many towns were rebuilt on entirely new sites. Another feature is the homogeneous structure of these towns, as the late baroque style developed in Sicily was extensively used in the rebuilding. The area's towns were rebuilt in what came to be known as the Sicilian Baroque style. Comiso (Sicilian: Còmmisu) is a municipality in the Ragusa Province, it has existed since before Byzantine times. Comiso was devastated by the 1693 earthquake and rebuilt on the same spot as the old ruins in the Sicilian Baroque style. The United States Air Force deployed Ground Launched cruise missiles to Comiso Air Base in June 1983. The missiles were eventually dismantled after the Intermediate-Range and Short-Range Nuclear Forces (INF). The last 16 GLCMs left Comiso Air Base in 1991. Salvatore Adamo (born 1st November 1943 in Comiso, Sicily, Italy) is one of the most commercially successful singers in Europe. Faima Văii Notose datorează mai ales reconstruirii urmare devastatorului cutremur din anul 1693, când zona a fost decimată. După cutremur multe dintre oraşe au fost reconstruite în acelaşi loc. Structura acestor oraşe este omogenă mai ales pentru că arhitecţii au folosit un stil unitar, cunoscut astăzi ca stilul baroc sicilian. Comiso (în sicilianăCòmmisu) este un oraş în Provincia Ragusa care după cutremurul din anul 1693 a fost refăcut pe vechiul amplasament, în stil baroc sicilian. Forţele Militare Americane au instalat lansatoare intercontinentale derachete la baza militară din Comiso în iunie 1983, rachete de croazieră cu lansator terestru (GLCM).Ele au fost demontate după tratatul forţelor militare (INF). Ultimele 16 rachete au părăsit baza din Comiso în anul 1991 Salvatore Adamo s-a născut la Comiso

  13. Comiso (30,000 inhabitants; 209m a.s.l.) stands on a plain at the foot of the Iblean Mountains. The road leading up to Ragusa, notably the final stretch, provides impressing views of the Ippari Valley and the coast. The country-side is densely populated, most due to presence of factories and hothouse plantations. Richest in water reserves, Comiso is among the most fertile and top agricultural producers of Sicily.
