We were only really able to peek into the Basilica as we were in Sciacca on Christmas day so visits were limited. We always visit churches and Cathedrals wherever we travel and this was nice to see
We took a deliberate 1 hour drive from Agrigento, having read reviews of nice houses & beautiful churches. Maybe it was the heat, the Basilica was closed when we first walked by after lunch, around...
Worth a visit
This magnificent church was just across the road from our hotel. It is truly fine on the inside. A must see place in Sicily.
Lovely church

Splendid Baroque
Excellent church full of curious items including a saint holding a bowl with two eyes. Overal it is an excellent example of basilica of its time.
Reconstructed
It was built in the XII century under the Norman dominance and the advocacy of the virgin of the Asunción.
