A few steps from the structure is Il Ponte di San Francesco, adorned by magnificent typical calatine majolica, which connects two of the three hills that form the historic center of Caltagirone and that was built to facilitate the faithful who rose from the lower part of the city to the Church of San Francesco. Along the bridge you can admire the church of Sant'Agata, the majestic Ex Carcere Bourbonico (now home of the Civic Museum) and Piazza Umberto I, surrounded by historic buildings and from which you can admire the Cathedral Basilica of San Giuliano, the main Catholic place of worship of Caltagirone and mother church of the homonymous diocese, which with its bell tower and the dome overlooks the square of the baroque city. Crossing Piazza Umberto I and looking to the left you will not miss the famous Staircase of Santa Maria del Monte with 142 steps in lava stone decorated with beautiful polychrome majolica tiles with floral and geometric designs. At the foot of the Scala is the beautiful Piazza Municipio, also surrounded by historic buildings such as the Palazzo dell 'Aquila, home to the Municipality of the city of Ceramics, the Luigi Sturzo Gallery and the former Capitanale Court. From Piazza Municipio there are two of the main and historic streets of the baroque city: Via Vittorio Emanuele on one side, which leads to the Basilica of San Giacomo (the patron saint of the city); Via Luigi Sturzo on the other, which reaches the Church of San Giorgio. Caltagirone, famous all over the world for its ceramics, houses numerous monumental churches and the Villa Vittorio Emanuele within which is the Museum of Ceramics and the Moorish-style musical stage with polychrome majolica coating.
