Piazza del Duomo di Catania è la principale piazza della città. In essa confluiscono tre strade, ovvero la via Etnea, la storica asse cittadina, la via Giuseppe Garibaldi e la via Vittorio Emanuele II La cattedrale è dedicata alla vergine e martire Sant'Agata, patrona della città. L'edificio attuale, è opera dell'architetto Gian Battista Vaccarini che disegnò la facciata in stile barocco siciliano Si accede al sagrato attraverso una breve scalinata in marmo che culmina in una cancellata in ferro battuto ornata con 10 santi in bronzo. Il sagrato è diviso dalla piazza del Duomo da una balaustra in pietra bianca ornata con cinque grandi statue di santi in marmo di Carrara. Il prospetto è a tre ordini compositi in stile corinzio, e attico completamente in marmo di Carrara. Al centro, sopra il portone: la statua di Sant'Agata Sulla stessa piazza, alla destra del Duomo e collegato ad esso da un passaggio che corre sulla porta Uzeda: il palazzo dei Chierici . Al centro della piazza si trova quello che è il simbolo di Catania, ovvero "u Liotru", una statua in pietra lavica raffigurante un elefante, sormontata da un obelisco, posta al centro di una fontana in marmo più volte rimaneggiata.

Hello Goodcaptain
Cathedral Flat in Catania represents the living room of this city. It encompasses the cathedral dedicated to Sant'Agata, the heartfelt patron saint of the city, the town hall, and is dotted with valuable monuments, such as that of the elephant: "u Liotru"
From the square then, begins the etnea street, the main artery of the long city that projects towards the volcano that gives it its name.
Tradition, this also of other countries of Catania that possess an Etnea way: constant its projection towards the volcano that overwhelmingly enters the life of those countries.
Thank you very much
A great greeting
Herst
