Parish of St John the Baptist

La Archpriest's and Reception Church of St John the Baptist, the current parish church, was built at the end of the 16th century in the centre of the medieval village, as the previous parish church was too small for the growing population. The high altar and the church were consecrated by Cardinal Vincenzo Maria Orsini (later Pope Benedict XIII) the 5 October 1690 and the 19 July 1696.

Some historians speculate serious damage from a fire in the 1715with restorations lasting until 1721, a hypothesis, however, not confirmed by documents. In the apse is a statue of the titular saint, St John the Baptistimposing papier-mâché work created in 1871 by brothers Michele and Gabriele Falcucci of Atessa.

After the collapse of the apse basin in the Christmas 1995the presbytery, altar, ambo and wooden choir have been reconstructed in modern forms.
