Chiesa dell’Itria

Lining the scenic Bastione di Capo Marchiafava, the Chiesa dell’Itria, officially known as the Chiesa di Santa Maria dell’Odigitria e San Giovanni Evangelista, is a modest church steeped in history. Its unique interior was created by joining two neighboring 16th-century churches with an internal arch in the mid-20th century. Visitors can explore this intriguing architectural blend and then continue to the nearby panoramic overlook for sweeping views.
