Church of 1517 renovated in the 19th century, with a wooden statue of the Madonna del Soccorso by Francesco Verzella.

The church of the Madonna del Soccorso dates from 1517 and changed its look at the beginning of the 19th century: the classical-style façade, with Corinthian pilasters and pediment, dates from that time. Above the doorway we are struck by the lunette with the stucco relief of the Madonna.Inside we recommend looking for the canvas by Francesco Celebrano with the Virgin, the Child and Saint Monica, and above all the wooden statue of the Madonna del Soccorso on the third altar on the right, carved in 1822 by Francesco Verzella.
