    The Early Christian Baptistery of San Giovanni in Fronte is unique in Italy for the presence of a spring in the center of the church, with the waters collected in a tub for baptism by immersion.
    It was founded in the 4th century by Pope Marcellus I and represents one of the oldest Christian settlements of the Constantinian age.

    On the border between the Municipality of Sala Consilina and the Municipality of Padula, the oldest and most illustrious Christian monument in the Vallo di Diano is located in the Fonti district. It is a unique Baptistery in Italy due to the presence of a spring in the center of the church, whose waters collected in a basin allowed baptism by immersion. It represents one of the oldest Christian settlements in the Constantinian period.
