The patronage of this church, “SANTA MARIA ASSUNTA” (in German: “Assumption of Mary”), refers to one of the many memorial days or feast days in honor of the Mother of God Mary. It goes back to the feast of her bodily assumption into heaven, which the (Catholic) Church celebrates annually on August 15th. In the Orthodox churches, the feast is called “Dormition of Mary”.

In many rural areas, it is customary for the population to collect bundles of herbs on this day and to bless them in the festive service.

The cathedral has a marble reredos (1432) by Riccomani. To the right of the choir, a vial that is said to have contained Christ's blood is kept in a chapel. In the chapel on the left hangs a crucifix, a masterpiece of Romanesque art by Guglielmo de Lucques (1138).

Ancient church in Tuscan Gothic style dating back to the XII century. Built on the ruins of a pre-existing early Christian basilica. The church is famous for the blood relic of Jesus Christ, collected during the crucifixion. The relic, brought to Luni in 742 and later transferred here, is kept in the Chapel of the Most Precious Blood, to the right of the main altar.
