About this place

The Church of Santa Maria Assunta, also known as Santa Maria in Piazza and associated with the veneration of the Madonna del Cielo, overlooks Piazza della Repubblica in Fondi. Its history is linked to the patronage of the Caetani family and to the transformation of the town centre over the centuries.

It is a place worth visiting on foot whilst exploring the town, allowing you to observe the relationship between the church and the square. The interior rounds off the tour dedicated to Fondi’s religious heritage; visits should be arranged to coincide with the parish’s services.
