Presenzano's mother church on Piazza ai Caduti, of Renaissance origin and remodelled in Neo-Gothic style in the 19th century.

Overlooking Piazza ai Caduti, in the heart of the town, the Church of the Santissima Annunziata is the mother church of Presenzano. Its present form dates from the 16th century, while later 19th-century works gave it a Neo-Gothic appearance; on the right side rises a square three-tier bell tower.Inside, we like admiring the large paintings beneath the ceiling devoted to the Annunciation, with God the Father, the dove of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin at prayer. We suggest also lingering over the old paintings of biblical figures in the corners of the apse vault.
