Chiesa dei Santi Pietro e Paolo

The church features three portals with statues of Madonna, Saint Peter, and Saint Paul, along with single rectangular windows above each entrance point.

Constructed in 1218, the church underwent significant modifications in the 17th century with the addition of a square bell tower and geometric balustrade.

The central nave displays an 18th-century gilded wooden altar and paintings created by local artists on the wooden false ceiling.

The church stands at the eastern end of San Pietro Caveoso Square, offering direct views over the Gravina River ravine.

The left nave maintains four original chapels, including a 13th-century baptismal font in the fourth chapel.
