    The medieval church of San Nicola, now incorporated into the historic centre, was located just outside the walls of the town and was always subject to the Benedictine abbey of San Salvatore a Maiella, since 1151. Today it can be seen in the forms conferred between Cinque and seventeenth century, characterized by a large porticoed access arch under which the late sixteenth century portal opens; the interior has three irregular naves with barrel and vaulted ceilings and preserves a terracotta Pietà and a sculpted wooden door, both dating back to the 17th century. On a stone block of the external buttress we read the date 1528. The patron saint San Domenico is venerated there, whose feast is celebrated on the first Sunday of May with the serpari rites and the re-enactment of the miracle of the wolf.

    Inside, the valuable altars dedicated to San Giuseppe, the Madonna del Carmine and San Carlo Borromeo are also preserved.
