Co-cathedral of Castellammare

The church of the Santissima Annunziata was the cathedral of the diocese of Vico Equense until 1818, when it was suppressed and incorporated into the church of Sorrento. The first cathedral of Vico Equense was located on the beach, in the lower part of the city, but subject to pirate raids it was moved and rebuilt to a higher area. The new church was built probably between 1320 and 1330, and major restoration work was carried out between 1773 and 1792, including a reconstruction of its façade.

The Cathedral of Pompeii, or Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Rosary of Pompeii, was founded from 1876 to 1891. The building was named Pontifical Basilica. In addition to being a pilgrimage destination, the sanctuary attracts many tourists. Every year more than four million people visit the shrine, which is therefore among the most visited in Italy.

The Church of Santa Maria Assunta was founded in the 10th century and is linked to the Byzantine icon of the Black Madonna with Child, which is said to have arrived in Positano in the 12th century thanks to some Benedictine monks. The church was renovated between 1777 and 1782 and is divided into three naves with five arches and several side chapels. A few steps away from the church stands the bell tower, built in 1707.
