Chiesa di San Giovannello, Gothic church in Ortygia, Syracuse, Italy.
The Chiesa di San Giovannello features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and stone masonry characteristic of medieval religious architecture in Sicily.
Located in Piazza del Precursore, this Catholic church stands as a testament to Gothic design principles that spread throughout Italy during medieval times.
The church maintains its role within the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Siracusa, conducting regular religious services for the local community.
