Basilica of the Immaculate Conception (Basilica dell'Immacolata), Agrigento

Highlight • Religious Site

The church is in Baroque style, with a facade in sandstone tuff, built on three towers: two bell towers and another, where there is a statue of San Francesco, in white marble.

The interior has a single nave, in which there are some frescoes by Sebastiano Consoli, a statue of the Madonna and a wooden crucifix from the 18th century, made by Vittorio Cardinale.

The church has a large pipe organ, built in 1948 by the Mascioni di Cuvio organ company: the instrument has 2 keyboards of 58 keys each, a concave-radial pedalboard of 30 notes and 28 sound registers, with a total of almost 2000 pipes. Previously, a second organ was located in the presbytery, which was completely destroyed by the bombings of World War II.

Stroll Through Historic Agrigento

Highlight • Historical Site

A stroll along Via Atenea is quite charming, especially when the shops are open. Unfortunately, much of it is in need of renovation, but that can also have its own charm.

Church of Saint Rosalia

Highlight • Religious Site

The church was built in the 17th century in the Baroque style, but the facade was later removed.

The church's construction commemorated the end of the plague and the discovery of the body of Saint Rosalia on Monte Pellegrino near Palermo. At that time, many Sicilian cities adopted Rosalia as their patron saint, including Agrigento.
