Santa Maria la Nova, Scicli

Santa Maria la Nova, cathedral, Scicli, rebuilt many times

This cathedral was not on the highest point or with a big piazza in front of it and was kind of hidden away. It is also in a very different style from all the others we’ve been seeing. This would be an example of Neoclassicism, where you see the traditional classical elements but none of the dramatic curves or embellishments of the Baroque.
