Chiesa di San Biagio in Sant'Agata alla Fornace
Catholic church
👍👍 La prima delle tante chiese che si trovano a Catania appena si raggiunge il centro storico, accanto all'anfiteatro romano. Meravigliosa sia all'esterno che all'interno, soprattutto per il clima che si respira e il raccoglimento che genera la visuale di una chiesa ben tenuta e curata nei dettagli.
