Cattedrale di Sant'Agata

A cathedral dedicated to Saint Agatha, the patron saint of Catania, whose oldest parts date back to the 11th century. After the devastating earthquake of 1693, it was rebuilt in the Baroque style and is today part of the UNESCO site of the Late Baroque Towns of the Val di Noto. It houses the relics of Saint Agatha, while in front of the entrance stands the Fontana dell'Elefante, the symbol of the city.
