The Church of Messina, located on the Piazza de Nice in Messina, was built in the 12th century and was destroyed by a volcanic eruption 100 years ago. The church is now rebuilt using the same materials and techniques as the original. The wood carvings, frescoes and gilded exteriors of the Messina church will amaze visitors. If you catch the hourly time, on the bell tower next to the church, there will be dolls of various small animals jumping out one by one, which is very novel.
