An unsurpassed masterpiece of art is Antonello Gagini's Madonna and Child , certainly the most perfect work he executed in 1516. The Church of Santa Maria degli Angeli contains the holy relics of Blessed Giovanni Liccio whose cult is great in Caccamo. In the church of Santa Maria degli Angeli, the stone portal of the central entrance is dominated by a niche where you can admire a 16th-century marble high relief depicting the Virgin and Child by an unknown artist. Characteristic is the half-timbered roof of the nave , painted with polychrome decorations depicting episodes from the life of the Dominican saints. Due to lack of restoration, the decorations have unfortunately fallen into disrepair. Also in the church are 14 octagonal canvases from the Via Crucis, seventeenth-century works of popular taste. On the right side of the transept we see a work from the end of the 18th century, a canvas depicting Saints Peter and Paul showing one of the few views of the castle below with a mastra tower that no longer exists because it was destroyed after the earthquake of 1823.

The Cathedral of San Giorgio Martire,called Cathedral of Caccamo, stands in Piazza Duomo. According to legend , the city's first cathedral was the Church of Sant'Anna e Santa Venera, a now-ruined building on the edge of the old quarter of 'Terravecchia', at the foot of the castle. A first mother church was built around 1094 , probably a small court chapel, as evidenced by a plaque in the temple attributed to the Normans. In the years 1477 - 1480, the building was enlarged and enriched with numerous works of art, an expression of the Sicilian Renaissance, thanks to the generosity and rule of the Enriquez - Prades - Cabrera families. In 1606, the judges and representatives of the powerful city families, represented by the Henriquez and Amato families and Canon Paolo Muscia, decided to build a larger mother church ex novo, taking into account the increased needs of the population, giving them the task of completing the project entrusted to the architect Vincenzo La Barbera from Palermo. In 1614, the prayer house was rebuilt with gifts from patrons of the city, the new construction given dictates typical of the flourishing Sicilian baroque. The temple thus renovated brings together the already existing artistic treasures with new commissions and works from other abandoned or dilapidated places of worship. The pyramid-shaped spire of the bell tower was finished with 4200 majolica tiles with the image of Saint George on the four sides. In 1790, lightning destroyed the bell tower, the repair was entrusted to Nicolò Pruiti who made the model in a conical shape. On that occasion, the bell chamber was also rebuilt with cut stone. The floor of the church, paved with grey, black and pink Carrara marble, was renewed and replaced the existing floor in majolica tiles. The dome is cube-shaped and is supported by four pillars.
