Information

The homonymous brotherhood built it in 1685, where once stood the fifteenth-century Church of Purgatory, furnishing it with some of the goods of the deconsecrated Church of San Cristoforo. Today San Gerardo Maiella is venerated here, who stayed for several years at the Convent of the Consolation in Deliceto. The Church, of Baroque layout, has a white and linear façade; the entrance welcomes visitors with drawings of the 700, with characters that echo the theme of death. The interior has a single nave with an apse flanked by the sacristy and the former oratory, now an exhibition hall of sacred art, which houses vestments, a frontal of the 700, ancient editions of the works of Saint Alphonsus and a stone statue of the Madonna and Child from medieval times. Along the nave you can admire many works of art: on the left wall the statues of San Giuseppe, San Luigi Gonzaga, San Gerardo Maiella, Santa Fausta and San Vincenzo martyrs (the latter coming from the old church of San Cristoforo); on the right wall the statues of the Immaculate Conception and Our Lady of Sorrows, the reliquary palms of the holy martyrs Valentine, Pretestato, Xavier, Benedict, Pius and Clement, a wooden Crucifix with relics of saints and a large canvas with a valuable golden frame, copy of the Byzantine Madonna of the Madia, of Monopoli (BA). Near the altar you can admire the large canvas of the '600, depicting "The Souls of Purgatory", the work of the artist Benedetto Brunetti; and the wooden statue of Sant'Anna of '700.
