Thank you so much Tessa78! I happen to met someone who lives in Ragusa...Would it be possible for him to go the office and get a birth certificate? Would that be an easier solution or should I just mail a letter?

Will check and see what others suggest about that...

I've always found writing to be easy, and mostly successful if the records are there :-)

If you want to get Church records, this thread may offer some help/insight...

Suggestions seem to include contacting the civil records office first.

Read this thread, beginning with the 4th post...
