The Basilica della Collegiata in Catania is a truly beautiful church, with a rich history and exquisite architecture. While there are certainly many stunning churches to be found throughout Italy, this particular basilica is a hidden gem that should not be missed.

One unique feature of this basilica is that it also doubles as a wedding hall on occasion. While this may cause some inconvenience for visitors during weekends when a wedding is taking place, it is also a testament to the beauty and versatility of the church.

Despite its smaller size, the basilica is grand in style, with intricate details that are sure to impress. Visitors can expect to be wowed by everything from the impressive altar to the stunning stained glass windows.

Overall, the Basilica della Collegiata in Catania is a must-visit for anyone interested in religious architecture and history. While its dual use as a wedding hall may be a minor inconvenience for some, it only adds to the charm and character of this...

Regia ed Insigne Basilica Colleggiata di Maria Santissima dell'Elemosina, già elevata a basilica minore, è senza dubbio una delle chiese più belle ed importanti di Catania. Dalla storia orgogliosa e travagliata, fu rasa al suolo dal terremoto del 1693 e costruita nel 1700 in stile barocco su progetto di Italia a pianta basilicale su tre navate. Nella ricostruzione si cambia il prospetto per affacciarla sulla nuova via principale dove Stefano Ittar disegna una facciata concavoconvessa su due ordini sopraelevandola su una scalinata e cingendola con un cancello. Elevata a regia basilica al pari della cappella Palatina di Palermo. Inserita nel patrimonio mondiale dell'umanità UNESCO, la bellissima chiesa oggi viene spesso usata per i matrimoni e custodisce all'interno una delle candelore che precedono il fercolo di Sant'Agata durante la processione.
