Mother church of Tortorella at the highest point of the village, of medieval origin, with a 16th-century portal.

The Church of Santa Maria Assunta dominates the highest and most central point of Tortorella. Its origins go back to the 11th century; in the 15th century it was already open for worship as Santa Maria Maggiore and became the parish church.It overlooks Piazza Umberto I and was restored in 1890 with contributions from the whole village. We suggest looking at the fine 16th-century portal.
