Chiesa di San Biagio
San Biagio’s late eighteenth-century facade and steps face the Roman amphitheatre at Piazza Stesicoro. Pause outside to see church and ancient arena together; an interior visit depends on separate access.
San Biagio faces the exposed Roman amphitheatre at Piazza Stesicoro. Stand by its steps to see a late eighteenth-century church and the ancient arena in the same urban scene. That contrast makes the square more than an archaeological stop and helps you understand how Catania continued to build around much older remains.
