The church of St. Anne in Arpino dates from the eleventh century and was completely rebuilt in 1500s.

The church is located inside the acropolis and houses a statue of the saint carried every year in a solemn procession through the streets of Arpino.

The special feature of this statue is that it is actually a triptych representing St. Anne, St. Joachim (husband of St. Anne) and the little Mary.
