The Basilica Cathedral Santa Maria Assunta is the main church of the town and can be easily reached by visiting Gravina on foot. What characterizes the church is its unusual mix of different styles. This is closely related to the history of the church that was built in 1092 in Romanesque style.

The church then went destroyed and was completely rebuilt only in 1508 with a more Renaissance style. Finally, it underwent numerous restorations in Baroque style between the 17th and 18th centuries.

Externally, the church is divided into three naves and has a wonderful Romanesque rose window that has been preserved since the first construction. Internally, instead, the church consists of three naves from which you can access the side chapels and is decorated with a wonderful golden carved wooden ceiling.

Under the church, then, it is possible to visit a second church dating back to 1500 known as "soccorpo della cattedrale" (cathedral's body) inside which it is possible to admire an altar and some frescoes dated between 1500 and 1600.
