Place of worship

Church of Santa Maria del Carmine, also known under the invocation of San Rocco, was built in 1685 on the site of a hypothetical pagan temple dedicated to the Sun, it may be inferred by an inscription found in the place. Outside, the facade has two towers on the sides, three portals and a staircase leading to front on Corso Umberto I, the major scenic walk in the city. From the church steps you can enjoy the lower city and Tyrrhenian Sea.
