Piazza dell'Università
Via Etnea runs from Piazza del Duomo right up through the city and into the foothills of Mt Etna. It is a bright street with lots of shops and cafés, and at its heart is Piazza dell'Università. Facing each other on the square are two buildings designed by Vaccarini - the Palazzo dell'Università to the west and the Palazzo Sangiuliano to the east. The former is the city's university.

Piazza del Duomo
The central square of Catania, Piazza del Duomo, is a World Heritage site. Surrounded by magnificent, sinuous buildings, the piazza is a sumptuous example of Catania's own style of baroque with its contrasting lava and limestone.
