Church of the Madonna dell'Altomare

The church of the Madonna dell'Altomare, built in the 17th century, was rebuilt in 1744 as the inscription on the façade recalls. Perched on a tuff spur that descends directly into the sea, was dedicated to the Holy Spirit. The interior has a single nave and features the altar dedicated to the Virgin. All decorations recall the maritime tradition: the mosaic floor is decorated in the center with a star, surrounded by knots. All the furnishings, including lighting, recall the themes of the sea: from the seahorse to the dolphin, from the anchor to the shell.
