Chiesa della Madonna delle Giummare, 12th-century Norman church in Mazara del Vallo, Italy

The Chiesa della Madonna delle Giummare, also called Madonna dell'Alto, is a Byzantine-Norman church in Mazara del Vallo. It has a single nave covered by three barrel vaults. The facade keeps a porch whose left wall opens two pointed arches, and the portal dates from the 14th century. In the central niche stands a marble Madonna and Child signed by Giacomo Castagnola and dated 1575.

The church was founded in 1072 by Count Roger I and was initially run by Greek rite monks. In 1145 it came under the administration of the Archimandritate of Messina.

The name Giummare comes from the giummara, the dwarf palm that grows wild around Mazara del Vallo. The church began as a Greek-rite abbey following the Rule of Saint Basil, and in 1154 it was placed under the Archimandritate of Saint Saviour in Messina. Two silver objects survive from its later history, an incense burner with its boat and a monstrance, both bearing the coats of arms of the Burgio and Riggio families with the Maltese cross.

The church operates as an active parish under the Diocese of Mazara del Vallo following a transfer agreement from 1873. Visitors should check service times and enter respectfully as it remains a functioning place of worship.

The marble Madonna and Child in the central niche is signed "Iacobi Castegniola manu", read by scholars as Giacomo Cassignola; the French source dates it to 1575. Two silver liturgical objects survive, an incenser with its boat and a monstrance, both bearing the coats of arms of the Burgio and Riggio families with the Maltese cross.
