An important example of Romanesque architecture is, in addition to the Basilica of San Pietro and the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore, the church of Santa Maria della Rosa.

It was built between the 13th and 14th centuries and most likely served as a cathedral during the 15th century, functions that later passed to the Church of San Giacomo. Some say its name is due to the Madonna del Rosario, while others say it is due to the Pink Easter (Pentecost).

The building has a façade that opens into three portals, the central one of which is adorned with twisted columns, above which there is a rose window enriched with small arches. On the right instead is the bell tower, started as a square tower and completed with a sail, which opens into a floor of Roman mullioned windows.

The interior is divided into three naves: in the left nave there is a 16th century canvas with the depiction of the Madonna del Rosario while at the end of the right nave, there is an altar polyptych (1581) with the representation of the Madonna Liberatrice.
