Description Behind the Gothic Church of Sant'Agostino, with its Descent of the Cross in colored terracotta by A. Ferraro (1552), a path leads up to the ruins of the hermitage of San Pellegrino - pilgrimages to this patron saint take place on 18th August - and then down to the Chiesa Madre.Inside this church, which dates back to Norman times, there is a Madonna by Gagini. Finally the tiny Gothic Church of San Salvatore is reached. A steep flight of steps leads up to the top of the rocks on which the ruins of the Arab, later Norman, fortress are situated and where a fine view can be enjoyed.
