Mother church of San Nicolò

The church, built in 1720/30 on the site of a previous church, has a beautiful baroque façade and many altars with colored marble inlays inside. Inside is kept the statue of St. Paul that comes out in procession on June 29 with a spectacular celebration. The church is the cent of devotion of the inhabitants of the district.

Destroyed by the earthquake of 1693, its ruins extend to the edges of the gorge north of the city.

Located in the eighteenth-century Ferla-Bonelli palace, the anthropological museum is dedicated to Antonino Uccello, an ethno-anthropologist who for years collected a lot of material related to Sicilian and peasant traditions. These have been brought together in this small regional museum that recalls their value and memory.

It was built in 1721-1722 under the direction of the architect Giuseppe Ferrara, the church has three naves and a simple baroque façade, inside a noteworthy painting by Michele Antonino Bova.

Rebuilt at the beginning of the 18th century on the ruins of the previous church. The right bell tower was completed in 1815 while the left one was not completed.

Rebuilt under the local architect Matteo Travisi. It has a suggestive facade with spiral columns that make the church if not one of the most beautiful certainly one of the most extraordinary in Palazzolo Acreide. Inside, until 1906, there was the painting of the Annunciation by the master Antonello da Messina, which can be admired today after the restoration at the Bellomo Gallery in Syracuse. Behind a wooden altar is the painting Madonna del Carmelo created by Marcello Vieri in 1785 and a wooden sculpture of the Madonna from the 18th century. There is also a large painting of the Annunciation by Paolo Tanasi from 1827, in a side chapel and another painting of St. Paul of Padua by the same artist.
