Piazza Santissima Trinità — Forza d’Agrò

In the Taormina guidePlan a day here

On screen

In the main square Michael and Kay join the wedding guests at an “opera dei pupi”, Sicily’s traditional puppet theatre. The puppets play the local legend of the Baroness of Carini, a tale of a father, a daughter and honour that ends in blood. Many see it as a foreshadowing of the film’s ending.

The place today

The square in front of the Holy Trinity church (Sant’Agostino) and its 16th-century Augustinian convent, entered through the Arco Durazzesco gate. On screen it is “Corleone’s” main square.
