Chiesa e convento di Santa Maria del Sepolcro

The church features a three-arched portico entrance with stone capitals, a gabled roof, and intricate wooden central portal displaying detailed carvings.

The Knights Templar constructed the church between the late 12th and early 13th centuries to assist pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land.

The church contains a collection of religious paintings, including a Nativity scene with shepherds and a 13th-century sculpture of Madonna with Child.

The church maintains its position as an active religious center within the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Potenza-Muro Lucano-Marsico Nuevo.

The right nave houses a baroque altar built in 1656 specifically to preserve a relic of Christ's blood brought by Bishop Claverio.
