Auditorium San Francesco
Dating back to the 13th century, the facility was enlarged in the 16th century, but the current church dates from an upgrade by Francesco Maria Ciaraffoni, an architect from Ancona who was a pupil of Vanvitelli. The organ is a valuable instrument by Gaetano Callido dating back to the 18th century.
