Church of Santa Maria Maggiore in Mirabella Eclano

The medieval mother church of Mirabella Eclano, with a 12th-century crucifix and an old baptismal font.

In the historic centre of Mirabella Eclano, on Via Eclano, stands the mother church of Santa Maria Maggiore, whose medieval origins go back to around the 10th century. It is the town's main place of worship and holds precious evidence of its long religious history.We suggest looking for the crucifix dating from around 1100, a work of extraordinary age and intensity. We also like the baptismal font, thought to have been made around 1300. A visit here pairs well with discovering ancient Aeclanum, the archaeological site that makes Mirabella an unmissable stop for history lovers.
