VIA DEI CROCIFERI
Street, with beautiful churches, illustrating the baroque character of old Catania.
It perfectly illustrates the baroque character of old Catania. The early 18th century church of San Benedetto, richly decorated both on the façade and inside, has a beautiful marble staircase. It is followed by the Church of the Gesuiti, whose Vaccarrini cloister has arches and pilaster columns. A little further north, the baroque church of San Giuliano is also the work of Vaccarini, with a beautiful façade and a gallery to which the visitor can access. The interior, dominated by a dome, contains a precious 15th century crucifix.
