Activity itinerary

Annunziata dei Catalani Church (Pass by)

Ancient church located in the historical centre of Messina

Chiesa di S. Francesco all'Immacolata (Pass by)

It is an impressive temple, the second in size for the churches of Messina

Campanile del Duomo di Messina (Pass by)

The Belltower is the most important attraction of Messina

Tempio Votivo di Cristo Re

The temple was built on the remains of the castle of Matagrifone of which one of the towers has survived, incorporated into the base. Designed by Giovanni Battista Milani in 1937, it dominates the city with its large dome and its shapes recall the architecture of Filippo Juvarra from Messina, in particular the Basilica of Superga on the hill of the same name in Turin.

Santuario della Madonna di Montalto

Our Messina photo tour will take you uphill to one of the most famous panoramic spots in Messina to enjoy the breathtaking view of the Strait of Messina while visiting the church of the Madonna di Montalto and then the Shrine of Christ the King. Discover the church of San Francesco all’Immacolata, a beautiful example of neo-Gothic style and second largest church in Messina.

Fontana di Nettuno

The Neptune Fountain, a Renaissance masterpiece created by Giovanni Angelo Montorsoli in 1557, will wait for your arrival at the waterfront overlooking the Strait of Messina. Here you will also have the opportunity to take a photograph of the stele of the Virgin Mary of the Letter located at the entrance of Messina port.

Fontana di Orione

The most beautiful fountain of the European sixteenth century”, was defined by the art historian Bernard Berenson, and in fact, it is a work of uncommon beauty, of great significance, and of strong emotional impact. It was commissioned by the Messina Senate in 1547[1] for celebratory purposes, with the idea of fixing it in memory of the construction of the first city aqueduct.
