Chiesa della Santissima Trinità, Romanesque church in Potenza, Italy.
Description
The Chiesa della Santissima Trinità is a Romanesque church in Potenza featuring a single nave with side chapels and a semicircular apse. Inside, visitors find a coffered ceiling and the building sits on Via Pretoria.
History
The church has been documented since 1178, though an earthquake in 1857 destroyed it completely and it was entirely rebuilt in 1872. This 19th-century reconstruction shaped the structure seen today.
