Cathedral of Salerno

The church of San Gregorio was built around the year 1000 during the Lombard period. In the 18th century, in order to facilitate access to the nearby Palazzo Pinto, a dilapidated wing was demolished. The church was desecrated and now houses the virtual museum of the Salerno Medical School.

The church of San Pietro a Corte is part of an area in the historic centre of Salerno where archaeological evidence of the various historical changes since the first century AD is documented and visible. The church was founded in the Lombard period, in the 8th century, and has four main stratifications: the Roman thermal building, the early Christian church, the chapel of the Lombard palace and finally the medieval public palace.

The Church of Sant'Agostino is a reconstruction, at the beginning of the 19th century, of the Convent of Sant'Agostino, founded in 1309. Inside there is the Virgin of Constantinople, now at the altar, but originally displayed in a chapel in the convent courtyard. She was found in 1453 on the beach in front of the convent and is thought to have come from Constantinople, hence the name. From the beginning, it received great popular devotion, still alive today, by virtue of the miraculous powers attributed to it.
