At every time his style: the church of Saint Eucairo alone, a rich witness to past centuries; erected in the xiith century, then retouched to the xive and xve centuries, it is one of the oldest religious buildings in the city Messina, beautiful testimony of flamboyant Gothic style. Currently in a restoration phase, only part of the building is visited. Once your eyes are used to darkness, his charm operates as magic: its stained glass windows are like color touches and its privacy invites visitors to the collection. Among the elements of furniture, its organ, choir and nef date from the xive and xve centuries. Outside, raise your head to observe his novel bell, still in good conservation condition. Dedicated to Eucairo iiie, Bishop of Trio (ecclesiastical metropolis which depended on Metz at the time), the church was primarily responsible for a famous religious festival. Every February 3, there is the last medieval pilgrimage of Metz. In a popular fervor, the faithful come to make bless small breads marked with piclets recalling the martyrdom of Saint Blaise, in order to obtain protection and healing against the throats of throat. The relics of Saint Blaise still lie in the church today. He has been invoked as healer of throats, since he saved a young boy strangled by a fish ridge.
