Trivigno.
Trivigno was built in a position overlooking the Basento
Valley.
There is no certain information about its origin.
In the XII century it belonged to Guglielmo Monaco,
in 1265 it became part of Albano, and in the XIV century
it was deserted for a long time, before being inhabited
again in 1595, when the Carafa family settled in this
area. The actual growth of the village took place
in the XVIII century, when it became a proper village.
The Church of San Pietro has a square bell tower
and inside it, there are two unequal aisles. In it
is a Baroque altar, with decorations in wrought iron
and an organ with a choir of the XVIII century, in
carved and painted wood.
The Church of San Rocco, the Chapel of Sant’Antonio,
the Church of the Madonna del Carmine, with a beautifully
painted ceiling, are all very interesting.
In the area, there are also several churches in caves,
such as the Church of Santa Maria, situated in an
area called ‘San Leo’.
