A few steps and you are already in the world's most famous Piazzetta, spectacular in its picturesque simplicity that officially welcomes you to the island and invites you to pause. In this intimate space, dominated by the Clock Tower, among the symbols of the island, the market was held in the 18th century. There was already the Church of St. Stephen, built in the seventeenth century and the island's cathedral until 1818.

Candida, with its domes silhouetted against the sky, holds canvases by important artists: St. Michael the Archangel and Our Lady of Mount Carmel by Paolo De Matteis, the funerary monuments of Giacomo and Vincenzo Arcucci by Michelangelo Naccherino. The valuable polychrome floor is composed in part of marble inlays from Villa Jovis. In the church are the relics of the patron saint St. Constantius effigyed in a silver statue.
