The Co-Cathedral of Irsina is a fantastic treasure chest full of jewels to discover: the statue of Sant'Eufemia (with exposed teeth), the correlations between Veneto and Basilicata, Mantegna and the sculptures (and not just the paintings). To take a leap into the history of the place and enter the places with full knowledge of the facts, I recommend booking the visit in agreement with Vito Grazio, whose cell phone is available at the entrance of the church.

The church is full of goodies and suggestive corners. But the real experience is the guide, the amazing Vitograzio who enchanted us and made our trip to Irsina truly special. Not to be missed.

Construction that begins its presence in the tenth century. Remodeled and rebuilt, the bell tower and the Romanesque crypt remain of its original origin which, a pity, does not welcome with all its historical strength due to an evident abandonment during the work of what should have been the restoration and maintenance project. When you enter the church, the guide does not go unnoticed who welcomes visitors with historical knowledge of this place of worship, illustrating and enriching with details of local culture. Irsina is one of the most beautiful villages in Basilicata and beyond, whoever arrives there cannot help but give a little more time to visit this ancient place and interesting co-cathedral, as well as getting to know, perhaps, the only sculptural work by Mantegna .

Amazing history and kept lovely. With curious links to the Knights Templar.

Beautiful cathedral where the statue of Sant'Eufemia by Mantegna is kept, a priceless heritage. It is a very rare testimony of the sculptural activity of the Renaissance artist, of which the sources speak. Thanks to the guide who explained all the beauties of the cathedral to us.
