Catania's Piazza del Duomo is one of the great baroque city squares of southern Europe, dominated by the Cathedral of Sant'Agata and centred on the famous Fontana dell'Elefante — the lava stone elephant mounted on a baroque pedestal that serves as the symbol of the city. The square was rebuilt after the catastrophic 1693 earthquake that destroyed much of eastern Sicily, resulting in a remarkably consistent baroque cityscape. Staying near Piazza del Duomo places you in the cultural and social hub of this underrated Sicilian city.
