Santa Maria la Nova, Scicli, Neoclassical church in Scicli, Italy.
Santa Maria la Nova features a facade organized into three orders with Ionic and Corinthian pilasters, connecting to a bell tower with stone balustrades.
The original church from the 6th century was destroyed during Norman conquest, rebuilt in 1567, then reconstructed again after the 1693 earthquake.
The church displays five ceiling paintings by G. Di Stefano from 1858, including scenes of the Adoration of the Shepherds and Presentation at the Temple.
The church contains three chapels on each side of the nave, with the right side housing statues of San Francesco di Paola and the Immaculate Virgin Mary.
A silver reliquary urn inside the church presents reliefs depicting San Guglielmo, San Giuseppe, and the Martyrdom of Sant'Adriano.
