Collegiate Church of St. Mary Magdalene Penitent, church in Atrani, Italy

The Collegiate Church of St. Mary Magdalene Penitent is a church in Atrani with three naves supported by pillars. The interior features a barrel-vaulted roof with decorative stucco and smaller chapels positioned along the side aisles.

The church was founded in 1274 on the site of former medieval defensive structures. Pope Clement XI granted it collegiate status in 1706 in response to the village's population growth.

The church displays artworks created by regional artists depicting religious narratives. These pieces shape how the interior feels and reflect the artistic heritage of the village.

The church is typically open during services, and summer volunteers help extend access hours. It is worth contacting the sacristan ahead of time to arrange entry outside regular hours.

The bell tower next to the church rises in five levels with three square stories at the base and two octagonal ones above. This distinctive design using gray stone blocks was completed in the 1500s and shapes the village's skyline.
