The Piazza in front of the Cattedrale di San Giovanni Battista is, together with the Via Roma, the lively center of the upper town of Ragusa, which was rebuilt after the earthquake of 1693. While tourists frolic in historic Ibla, everyday life takes place here.

Built from the end of the 17th century, it is the most important cathedral in the upper part of Ragusa and has been a UNESCO heritage site since 2002.
