The Basilica Santa Caterina in Pedara, Sicily, is a minor basilica built beginning in 1695 and designed in the exuberant Sicilian Baroque style. Serving as a parish church, it exemplifies the religious and architectural ambitions of late 17th-century Sicily, when the island's towns rebuilt and embellished their sacred spaces with ornate decoration and dynamic forms characteristic of the Baroque period.
