The Capuchin monastery was built from the late sixteenth century in a very peripheral area at the time. Preserve with its four altars traits discrete charm of the Franciscan. The facade is simple and devoid of ornamentation. The interior, rebuilt in the eighteenth century, contains many works of art. Behind the altar fine ciborium, a finely crafted elegant tabernacle in walnut, and a large painting of the Madonna delle Grazie, which is called the temple with the holy Sabino, Vito and Irene, signed and dated work (1766) by Domenico Antonio Carella, who also painted the smaller places on time. Under the vault there is a large and valuable painting, perhaps the Neapolitan Fabrizio Santafede (XVI-XVII century), depicting the Virgin and Child, Holy Souls in Purgatory and cappuccinos. Among the paintings adorn the sacred building: the seventeenth-century Crucifixion with Saints Francis and Anthony of Padua, one of S. Happy da Cantalice by Carlo Rosa (seventeenth century), the one with the Virgin and Child, S. Sabino and S. Francesco da Paola, of the seventeenth century.
