Parish church of Perito dedicated to its patron St Nicholas of Bari, celebrated by the community on 6 December.

In Perito, a small town in inland Cilento, the Church of San Nicola di Bari is the village's parish and the symbol of its religious identity. It is dedicated to the patron saint, much venerated throughout Cilento, and belongs to the diocese of Vallo della Lucania.We like visiting above all for the patronal feast on 6 December, when the village gathers around its saint. We suggest combining the stop with a walk through the village and its surroundings, among farmed hills and woods, to discover at leisure an authentic, little-known corner of Cilento.
