S. MARIA DI COLLEMAGGIO
Santa Maria di Collemaggio - L'Aquila It can be considered the most famous basilica in Abruzzo, because of its architectural and historical importance.

It was started in 1275 by Pietro da Morrone (then Celestino V) who, coming back from Lyon, stopped to rest near Collemaggio. Pietro dreamt of the Virgin Mary’s desire for a temple dedicated to her. On the left of the basilica there is the Holy Door.
