The church of St. Nicholas of Bari dates back to the 1700s and is located behind the medieval fortress of Arnara.
It is a reconstruction of an earlier building dating from 1200.
The building suffered major damage during the earthquake of 1915 and was later restored.
The interior has three central naves in late Baroque style and the central nave ends with an altar and a wooden choir.
The central nave is covered by a barrel vault, while the aisles are covered with three domes each.
The altars of the side aisles end with paintings framed by columns.
The church ends with a wooden choir surmounted by a painting depicting the saints Nicola and Stefano.
Above the entrance of the church is an organ.
In the '90s an ancient fresco came to light on the wall depicting the help of the Virgin for the souls in purgatory.
