THE CAPUCHIN CHURCH

It was built in 1585 together with the nearby convent in order to host the lesser capuchin monks, an order which was suppressed in 1866. It is dedicated to St. Mary of the Angels. The façade is soberly defined by essential geometric patterns, after the poverty and humility of the monks. Three 18th century marble statues on the right represent St. John the Evangelist, the Lady of Assumption and Mary Magdalene bearing an iron cross as a symbol of the passion of the Christ. The convent was raised at the back of the church but consequently to the suppression of the order it was used as a judicial prison. The church presents a richly decorated wooden altar showing a 18th century painting where the Madonna of the Angels is represented together with the saints Francis and Anthony from Paola.
