Churches

Church of Santa Veneranda

Church of Santa Veneranda Church of Santa Veneranda
The church of Santa Veneranda rises on a nucleus of Norman era, originally connected to a Benedictine convent of which no evidence remains. 

The church was restored in ‘500, of which remains a beautiful coffered ceiling. The current appearance is also due to the restoration work done between 1650 and 1788. The rich sculptural and pictorial decorations of Sicilian artists remain, including a statue of Santa Veneranda of the Gaginian school. They are characteristic of the facade in local yellow sandstone, the eighteenth-century stuccoes, two angular bell towers and the portal.
