A monumental building. And one of the largest in Europe in terms of area.

The ancient theater of Segesta not only offers an impressive historical setting, but also a breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding valleys and mountains of Sicily. If you make it this far, you will not only be greeted by the amphitheater, but also by a setting that extends far beyond the ruins. The curved stone tiers seem to blend seamlessly into the landscape, and on clear days the view stretches as far as the sea. The climb is worth it for any hike, especially if you can enjoy the peace and wind at the top of Monte Barbaro. If you are interested in history, you will have a lot to discover here, as the theater was rebuilt by the Romans and is still amazingly well preserved. And if you are lucky, there might even be a performance taking place - the amphitheater is still in use today. If the walk is too steep for you, there is the option of taking a shuttle. But the climb is worth it, especially if you want to enjoy the view every now and then.

San Cataldo is a church building in Palermo. It is located not far from the city center on the south side of Piazza Bellini next to the church of La Martorana and is dedicated to Saint Cataldo. Both churches are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Arab-Norman Palermo, as are the cathedrals of Cefalù and Monreale.

It was built in the historicist style on Piazza Verdi at the former western gate of the old town of Palermo. A church and the monastery of San Giuliano previously stood on the site. Both were demolished to make room for the new building. The architect was Giovanni Battista Filippo Basile, who began construction in 1875. After his death, the building was completed in 1897 by his son Ernesto Basile.
