Monastero dei Benedettini di San Nicolò l'Arena
Monastery
👍👍 One of our best experience in Catania was the (English) guided tour of the monastery (well, university). You can not really visit without the tour, specially during the summer when the University is closed. The tour costs 9 euros and lasts a out 1h20m.
If you go on Saturday (maybe Sunday as well, d...

Church of Saint Mary 'di Gesù'

👍👍 This Church was built in 1442.
Following the earthquake of 1693, it was destroyed and then rebuilt in the following century with the current Romanesque style façade commissioned by Brother Gerolamo Palazzotto.
As for the style, we can say that it does not have a precise style, but is a mixture of st...

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.

Chiesa dell'Eremo Sant'Anna
Catholic church
👍 Posto suggestivo da cui è possibile godere di una bellissima vista della zona e del mare.
L'unico neo è che la chiesa non è sufficientemente illuminata, soprattutto nella parte alta, rendendo difficili foto e riprese al buio.

Church of Sant'Agata la Vetere

👍👍 Da piazza San Domenico si arriva facilmente a questa chiesa, decisamente affascinante, anche solo vista dall'esterno. Sono visibili i resti della prima chiesa, distrutta dai vari terremoti. Sono presenti 2 sarcofagi che hanno contenuto, in momenti diversi, le spoglie di Sant'Agata . Nei due euro di...
