Church of Saint Mary in Platea

The Church of Saint Mary in Platea stands in Piazza Farnese with a neoclassical facade and a bell tower featuring an octagonal upper section.

Built in the late 14th century, the structure transformed from a single-nave layout to a three-nave design between the 15th and 16th centuries.

The wooden ceiling contains paintings by the Roman School, while the aisles display artworks including a 14th-century painted cross and a 1577 Madonna with Child.

The church operates under the Roman Catholic Diocese of Teramo-Atri and maintains regular religious services for the local community and visitors.

The bell tower incorporates ceramic tiles possibly decorated by Antonio da Lodi in 1474, transitioning from a square base to an octagonal structure.
