Also known as Chiesa Matrice, it is the oldest and historically most significant church building and is considered the historical nucleus of the city, as the original settlement developed around this sanctuary in the Middle Ages, Castellum Sancti Severini. It is protected as a National Monument. Originally in the Romanesque style as a three-nave church, first mentioned in 1059, it later received the form of a Latin cross through extensions.

According to legend, chronicles report that the patron saint, San Severino Abate, personally appeared on the city walls in 1522 and again in 1528 to put attackers and imperial troops to flight. Traditionally, hoofprints of his horse, which are said to be visible on the church altar, are considered proof of these miracles.
