Santa Maria Maddalena
Religious Sites, Atrani
Fodor's Review:
The church of Santa Maria Maddalena, on a piazza, was built in 1274 and given a neo-Baroque facade in 1852. The dome is covered in majolica tile, and the bell tower has an octagonal belfry similar to the campanile of the Carmine church in Naples. Among the treasures here are an altar in richly colored marbles and 16th-century paintings attributed to Amalfi Coast artists: St. Magdalen between St. Sebastian and St. Andrew by Giovannangelo D'Amato of Maiori, and The Incredulity of St. Thomas by Andrea da Salerno.
