Church of the Augustinian Hermits' complex, with a cloister rebuilt in 1473 that now houses the town hall and archaeological museum.

In the historic centre of Buccino we suggest a stop at the Church of Sant'Antonio Abate, part of the complex of the Hermits of St Augustine. The convent was founded in the late Middle Ages and its cloister was entirely rebuilt in 1473; it has recently been restored and reopened to visitors.We really like the way this place combines faith and culture: the rooms of the old convent now house the town hall and the National Archaeological Museum of Volcei "Marcello Gigante", devoted to the ancient city from which Buccino grew. A combined visit to church, cloister and museum is the best way to get to know the town.
