Ancient church in the centre, already in existence in the 9th century and rebuilt in the 17th; frescoes by Solimena and canvases by Malinconico.

On the street of the same name, near via Monteoliveto, Santa Maria Donnalbina is a very ancient church, already in existence in the 9th century. It was rebuilt in the 17th century by Bartolomeo Picchiatti and renovated at the end of the century by Arcangelo Guglielmelli.It is a fine example of late 17th- and early 18th-century Baroque: the altar in inlaid marble, the organ of 1699, the ceiling of 1701 with canvases by Nicola Malinconico and, in the presbytery and transept, frescoes and canvases by Francesco Solimena.
