Church of saint Maria del Soccorso, Catholic church in Alcamo, Italy.

The Church of Saint Maria del Soccorso is a Catholic building with an elliptical structure and a white stone portal that stands out on the facade. The entrance features a relief showing the Virgin Mary surrounded by angels in the curved section above the doorway.

Merchants founded this place of worship during the 15th century with original Gothic features. A major transformation took place in the 18th century that reshaped the building's design and appearance.

The name refers to the Madonna del Soccorso, venerated after an apparition to the Augustinian friar Nicola La Bruna in Palermo in 1306. She is also called Madonna della Mazza, shown striking a demon with a club. The Confraternita di Maria Santissima del Soccorso, active by 1430, celebrated her feast on 8 December with a procession.

The church stands on Corso 6 Aprile, directly opposite Alcamo's Mother Church, so it is easy to include in a walk along the town's main street. The bell tower and the small church belong to the Basilica, which received them as a gift from Rocca Vincenzo.

The high altar holds a 16th-century Madonna del Soccorso attributed to Bartolomeo Berrettaro and reworked by Giacomo Gagini in 1545. She is shown swinging a small club at a demon crouched at her feet, which earned her the local title Madonna della Mazza. After the 1968 earthquake the statue and the lunette were moved to the Basilica, then returned.
