The data comes from on-site surveys. Where there is no survey, no judgment appears: we prefer to say we don't know rather than give you unverified information.

The Church of Mary Most Holy Mother of God is the parish church of Cannole. Built between the end of the sixteenth century and the beginning of the seventeenth century, it was enlarged in the second half of the eighteenth century with the addition of the transept, which transformed the original layout into a Latin cross.
The façade, made of Lecce stone, opens into the portal surmounted by a niche with a statue; higher up, within the broken tympanum, there is a large trabeated window and the iron summit cross. Toward Piazza San Vincenzo rises the clock tower, while the bell tower is attached to the north of the apse.
Inside, the altars of Our Lady of the Rosary and the Holy Family stand out, linked to the Personé barons, along with a rare sixteenth-century altar of the Immaculate Conception. In the transept, there are three additional eighteenth-century altars dedicated to the Crucifix, the Souls in Purgatory, and Saint Vincent Ferrer, the patron saint of Cannole.
Completing the church are the nineteenth-century main altar, the baptistery from 1765, and the paintings by Giuseppe Verrio and Serafino Elmo.
