The church of San Giovanni is located in the Muricello district and dates back to the 16th century, when it was dedicated to „Santa Maria la Candelora“. The architectural design is simple and modest. The facade has a small bell tower. The interior of the church has a single nave; to the right of the humble altar there are traces of an ancient portal.\n\nNear the chapel, you can enjoy an unforgettable view of the Gravina di Castellaneta, thanks to a beautiful terrace, maintained by the inhabitants of the alley.
