Churches - St. Sebastian
This church, also known
as "The Church of Souls", was built thanks
to the confraternity of "Anime del Purgatorio"
(Purgatory Souls), and it was finished in 1670.
Subsequent restorings
modified the floor, the roof and the entrance stairs.
Nowadays the church hosts some important paintings like
"St. Gennaro protects from earthquake" made
by Giovanni Scatigno (1747), and the "Martyrdom
of St. Sebastian" painted by Umberto Colonna (1950).
On the portal the
ancient heraldry of the town.
