Church of Saints Peter and Paul
In the municipality of Montoro
The church is mentioned for the first time in official documents in 1309 and only in 1511 was it elevated to a parish.
It, with its simple facade, despite being separated from the bell tower and the adjacent archconfraternity of the Holy Name of God, must be seen in a single religious complex.
Inside there are numerous works of art including a beautiful carved choir of the eighteenth century, the statues of the two saints to whom the church is dedicated, a painting of the Holy Family by Nicola Pepe and two ancient baroque-style stoups.
