Basilica of Our Lady of the Martyrs

A characteristic karstic collapse sinkhole created by the collapse of the vault and the dividing walls of one or more caves and tunnels formed starting from distant geological times and forming part of a complex karst system consisting of the confluence and intersection of several karst wells which originated precisely in that place from a series of geological coincidences.

Housed a restored building from the early 19th century, it exhibits various finds from various archaeological excavations, carried out since 1997 in the Neolithic village of the Azzollini Fund and in the nearby Pulo. The collection includes a selection of ceramics, lithic industries and fragments of the huts, dating back to the Neolithic and the Bronze Age, accompanied by captions, images and reconstructions. There are also some ceramic containers of the local 18th-century factories, which refer to the period in which the sinkhole was used as a saltpetre quarry.

Its majestic facade was completed in 1744 after years of work started in 1610 and continued in the eighteenth century. On the façade, at the top, there is a large marble statue of St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus. It became a Cathedral in 1785, as the Cathedral of San Corrado had become insufficient for the increased population.

Palazzo Dogana stands on the edge of the ancient village, facing the port. Over time it has been the seat of the Episcopal Seminary, then moved to its current location, and of the customs. After several years of neglect, the construction site that will transform the building into a luxury hotel was started in 2017.
