The "Piazza del Duomo" (Duomo square) is itself a monument. It also houses the Elephant Fountain, symbol of the city, the Town Hall with the Uzeda Gate and the Amenano Fountain, which takes its name from the river that flows under Catania.

It is so called because it runs in the direction of Etna, which is always visible as you go along it. Along its 3 km you can go shopping and admire baroque buildings and churches dating back to the reconstruction following the terrible earthquake that destroyed Catania in 1693.

Erected in the area of Catania ancient acropolis, the theater is today partially covered by eighteenth-century buildings.

The theater was inaugurated in 1890 with the representation of Norma, the most famous work of the Catania composer Vincenzo Bellini, who died prematurely in 1835.

Built by Frederick II of Swabia starting from 1234, the Castle has a strict quadrangular plan with two of the corner towers still visible.

This impressive monument is a jewel of the late Sicilian Baroque.

Etna is the highest active volcano in Europe, which never ceases to enchant with lava flows and lunar landscapes.

Well-known seaside of eastern Sicily, Aci Castello has a unique charm, bordered by crystal-clear waters that lash into the lava-stone ridges, in the shadow of the Norman Castle that gave its name to the city. Acitrezza is a fraction of Aci Castello, so characteristic that it inspired the odes of Homer for his Odyssey. An absolutely adorable small fishing village, it enchants with its panorama dominated by the 8 faraglioni, the lava ridges formed before Etna.

The Historic Site of S. Benedetto Monastery is a favorite destination for Baroque lovers, especially thanks to the presence of the Church of S. Benedetto, dedicated to S. Benedetto da Norcia. The church is part of the Monastery of the Benedictine nuns, initially built in 1355 and rebuilt at the beginning of the 1700's, after the terrible earthquake that struck Val di Noto in 1693.

Dedicated to the patron saint of the city, the cathedral was completely destroyed by the earthquake of 1693 and was rebuilt in Baroque style between 1734 and 1761 by Vaccarini and Palazzotto.
