| The present church of St. Joseph is located in the historic center, where once there was the church of San Bartolomeo. Very simple is the facade of the Renaissance style. Inside: golded wooden statue of St. Bartholomew (seventeenth century), papier-mâché statue of St. Nicholas (early '900); canvas of the Deposition of Christ, painted by a seventeenth century and the Mannerist Pugliese on the high altar; painting of the Madonna of the Rosary of St. Roch and St. Blaise (the second half of the sixteenth century perhaps Dalmatian painter); painting of the Virgin of Relief among the saints Leonardo and Donato, attributed to the painter Nicola Gliri of Bitonto(1631-1687).
