The Saint Anne Church (Italian: Chiesa di Sant'Anna) is a Catholic church in Contrada Mirabella in Campora San Giovanni, a small village in Italy, frazione of Amantea.

History

edit

The building was built around the mid-15th century, as part of the land possessions of the Mirabelli family from Amantea, from which the district takes its name. In the church there are preserved missals from the 16th century, of great historical religious value and prestige.

Much of the liturgical furnishings that were to adorn the environment were lost or lost during the 19th century, but during the new millennium, in particular since 2009, there was a restoration of the same by local inhabitants under the supervision of technicians and specialists . Every year on July 26 the district overlooking the Tyrrhenian coast hosts celebrations in honor of Saint Anne, and there are also picturesque and rural events.
