Chiesa di Santa Maria dell'Assunta, Romanesque church in Castello district, Gragnano, Italy.

The church features three naves supported by columns displaying Corinthian, Doric, and Ionic architectural styles within its stone structure.

Declared a national monument in 1927, the church underwent restoration work that revealed original structures in the narthex during the same year.

The main altar exhibits a triptych from the Neapolitan school and a canvas of the Assumption commissioned during the 16th century.

Access to the church requires climbing a Vesuvian stone staircase that leads to a patio with three Siculo-Arabic style arches.

The bell tower, built between the 15th and 16th centuries, combines Romanesque and Moorish styles with a square base and octagonal dome.
