 Niccolò Maggiore told that in Naso "the building of the poor, the monastery, the church of San Pietro, church of the souls of purgatory and the Cathedral collapsed, some in full, some in large part" [24].The crisis of the town between the 19th and 20th century was also due, as with the other cities of Sicily, by the effects of large-scale emigration.Today the small town has economic activities related to agribusiness and of course to tourism.
