Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The church is beautiful from the outside. The interior is simple and spoiled by modern paintings, a television screen that unfolds scenes from the movie The Godfather. To push you to pay the 2€ entrance, we have put a large panel that hides the interior space. But it's not worth it... Go to the Chiesa di Santa Maria or San Michele!

We walked up a steep hill to view this lovely little church on a scenic hillside. It was the church where Michael and Apollonia wedding was filmed in Godfather Part 1.

Maria at bar Vitelli told me to go to the church as it was also in the godfather as the place Michael Corleone got married. What i did not expect was to hear the most angelic voice singing. I was confused as no one as the alter and looked up for a place the choir sat then realised it was Antonio who was at the ticked desk. Was worth going if only to hear his voice and normally i am not a fan of that singing, but it was so perfect it resonated

The Chiesa di San Nicolo /Santa Lucia is beautiful!
Unfortunately, an incident coloured my stay most negatively! Upon entrance my fellow travelers and I were asked for a voluntary donation, meaning that it was optional. Not having any cash on us, we entered anyway... The young man at the church's reception saw us later, when we had left the church, in fact several meters away. Passing us by, while sitting on his motorcycle, he yelled at us, saying that we, the French, are stingy! That we promise funds and never deliver! My fellow travelers and I are neither French nor stingy! We are heartbroken at this racist attack!

This hidden gem in Savoca is not to be missed. We travelled there with our group and this was the church that was used during the wedding scene between Michael and Appollonia in the filming of :The Godfather". A donation of 1 euro is necessary to enter. In the back of the church there is memorabilia from the film. [pictures] It is a must visit for fans of the film. Since it is a church, modest dress and low volume is appreciated

The setting of this church is reason alone to pay a visit.Once inside you have more opportunity to take some photos with some godfather memorabilia.

We visited this lovely church as part of a Godfather tour. The church itself had an interesting story that was worth exploring. They also understood that the Godfather fans would want to see this spot so they created a room with some memorabilia. We were able to go inside although the inside did not appear in the film. In a small room there was a television where they showed us the wedding scene that was filmed here. The guide then told us about their patron saint. It only took a few minutes to see all there was to see so I would recommend incorporating other things if you decide to come this way. But I've never been a Godfather fan and I still appreciated this charming church and town and was grateful I could see it.

We walked to this church while on a Godfather tour & visiting Savoca.
Some scenes were filmed in Savoca & this church was used for the wedding scene where Michael married Apolina.
Even if you are not a fan of The Godfather movies it is worth the short but steep walk as the views from here are spectacular.
The church itself is fairly typical.
