Ottimati Church

Ottimati Church

The Ottimati Church is an old Byzantine-Norman church built around the 10th century. The church takes its name from the former crypt of Ottimati, which was built as a support structure for the church in Normandy (12th century). Abandoned in 1767 following the suppression of the Jesuit order that occupied it, the church received the protection of Ferdinand I of Bourbon in 1780. After having been deeply damaged by the earthquakes of 1783 and 1908, the church was rebuilt in the first half of the 20th century.
