It comes with a rememberance lane commemorating all the victims of the mafia.

Dedicated to Santa Maria Assunta, it was built on the ruins of the old Romanesque church from 1348, of which the massive bell tower remains. Its current building was designed by the architect Mastropasqua from Giovinazzo and was built by the Bitonto company Fratelli Sannicandro in 1858. It was consecrated by Archbishop Ernesto Mazzella on Christmas Eve 1988. Its facade faces east and the interior consists of three naves. In the central nave you can admire a painting representing the Assumption of the Madonna into Heaven made by the painter Michele Montrone. On the side walls there are two medallions depicting Pope Pius XII and Pius IX, works by the painter Umberto Colonna, also author of the paintings in the central nave and the dome. In the right nave there is a large wooden crucifix from the 16th century and a tabernacle with silver candlesticks and you can also admire the silver cross in which there is a relic of the Cross of Jesus. On the side walls there are oil paintings on canvas from the 18th century depicting the glory of St. Clare, the Madonna with Angels, St. Dominic, St. Gaetano and the Holy Family. On the right side we can admire a pedestal containing the relics of St. Zenone, the first patron saint of Cassano, of Annibale di Francia, of Blessed Giacomo di Bitetto, St. PIO da Pietrelcina, St. Rita, Mother Teresa of Calcutta, St. Basil, St. Ursula and sculptures dating back to the original church. In the left nave we can admire the carved walnut pulpit, the Naca and the statues of St. Vincent de Paola and Veronica and St. Francis.
