Church of the Most Holy Trinity

On the northern side of the “Li Cannola” crossroads stands Piazza Giuseppe Di Stefano (1925-1987), Mayor of Calatafimi during the reconstruction period following the 1968 earthquake. On the eastern side stands the complex of the church of the Santissima Trinita’ and the Permanent Orphanage. The Church of the Holy Trinity was the church of the Stabile Orphanage, also known as the “new abbey,” and was founded together with the charitable institution in 1848 by Don Pietro Stabile. The orphanage, unused after the 1968 earthquake, has a trapezoidal block plan and an internal cloister around which two areas are organized: sleeping and living areas and a worship area with the church and sacristy. In the small church, three works by Giuseppe Patania: on the right side, Saint Stephen, oil on canvas, 1843; on the high altar, Holy Trinity, oil on canvas, 1847; on the left side, Saint Peter, 1843.
