San Michele Arcangelo is a romanesque-style Roman Catholic church in the city of Potenza, region of Basilicata, Italy.
History
editA church at the site is first documented in 1178, however, floor mosaics, likely from the 5th century, uncovered in the church suggest that a late Roman structure was likely here before then. As was common for many Lombard churches, it was dedicated to St Michael Archangel. The stone portal has a sculpted relief of the Madonna and Child with some Franciscan Order symbols.[1]
