Duomo di Maddaloni, Baroque minor basilica in Maddaloni, Italy.

The Basilica of the Body of Christ features a single nave with side chapels, a transept forming a Latin cross, and eight large windows illuminating the dome.

Construction of the church began in 1721 following the design of royal Roman architect Antonio Canevari, with the bell tower completed by Orazio da Salerno in 1790.

The high altar, designed by architect Luigi Vanvitelli in 1762, required 2,946 ducats for construction and stands as a centerpiece of religious significance.

The basilica contains two entrances, with the main portal displaying a stucco statue of Saint John the Baptist between two angels above its architrave.

The interior decorations were executed by master stucco artist Michele Santullo, while master marble worker Antonio Di Lucca created the church portals.
