Savoca was an ancient important religious center, as is evident from the numerous churches all belonging to the fifteenth century. Splendid is the Church of the Capuchin Convent which preserves numerous paintings dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. There you can admire an \u201cUltima Cena\u201d from the Caravaggio school and, in the crypt, the corpses, elegantly dressed and mummified, of seventeen illustrious men of the city. A particular attraction is the \u201cVitelli\u201d bar which houses a collection of local handcrafted tools and photos of the scenes from the film \u201cThe Godfather\u201d.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;65&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;5&#8243;
