Trivigliano. Church of Santa Maria Assunta

The church of Santa Maria Assunta is of medieval origin and has undergone much remodeling until its present eighteenth-century appearance.

It has a single nave with elevated presbytery and small side chapels dedicated to the many saints revered by the community of Trivigliano.

The great altarpiece represents the Assumption of the Virgin and dates back to the eighteenth century.

The baptistery has a stone font dating from the XII to XIII centuries. Above the entrance door is an organ of the seventeenth century.

Outside, walled in the base in stone floor at the left of the entrance door and on the facade of the bell tower, are decorative medieval fragments testify to the antiquity of the building.
