The church of the Madonna della Serra, radically restructured in the 1615, has ancient origins. The site on which it stands is interesting from the point of view of landscape and archeology. Surrounded by ancient olive trees and Mediterranean vegetation in its vicinity there is the homonymous cave Neolithic discovery in the seventies and the remains of a pre-Roman structure. The façade of the church is very simple from the decorative point of view, is embellished with a beautiful portal. During the mid-twentieth century, has undergone some renovations to ensure the statics. The interior is built of single rectangular nave, covered with vaults. Above the small altar of the church, a niche containing the statue of the Madonna della Serra. In front of the church there is a votive column on top of which there is a statue of the Madonna and Child.
