Church of SS. Apostles Philip and James - Nose

The Mother Church, dedicated to the Holy Apostles Philip and James, is the first church in Naso, in history and importance. Founded by the first settlers who settled in Naso, it was built in the Renaissance style and contains works of extraordinary historical and artistic value. The three-nave building of worship is characterized by the presence of ten side altars dedicated to different Saints. Of particular interest are marble statues depicting The Assumption and the Angels and The Madonna and Child, as well as a wooden crucifix from the 1600s. Of extraordinary charm is the chapel of the Rosary, located around 1930 in place of the chapel of the Madonna del Carmelo. It is an extraordinary marble masterpiece of Bartolomeo Travaglia's Palermo sculpture that crosses theology with the myths of ancient Greece, an incredible historical journey between religions, beliefs and esoteric mysteries.
