Parish church of San Marzano sul Sarno on Piazza Umberto I, dedicated to the patron St Blaise, bishop and martyr.

Overlooking Piazza Umberto I, next to the town hall, the Church of San Biagio is the seat of the only parish of San Marzano sul Sarno, a town of the Agro Nocerino-Sarnese famous worldwide for the tomato that bears its name. It is dedicated to the patron, the bishop and martyr St Blaise, and we like it as the true heart of town life.We suggest visiting during the patronal feasts: in February religious celebrations prevail, while in September the occasion spills into the square with civic events, illuminations and fireworks. A good way to get to know the traditions of this corner of Campania up close.
