The Villa Cerami was once a semirural villa, located at the edge of the urban center and with a sizable surrounding garden, located at the Northern end of via Crocifero (#91), in the city of Catania, Sicily, southern Italy. Once a private home, it now houses the offices of the School of Jurisprudence (Law) of the University of Catania. It is located on a rise above the city, the villa was built atop the ruins of part of the Roman amphitheater of which some ruins are visible in nearby Piazza Stesicoro. Adjacent or nearby are three Sant'Agata churches: la Vetere, al Carcere, and alla Fornace. The route down via Crocifero passes four major Baroque churches and convents.
