The first burgh encountered after leaving the quarter of S. Pietro is S. Maria delle Grazie (Saint Mary of the Graces).
It is a minute village, although the population has increased through the years. The economy of this small burgh of Maiori, with its many lemon groves, is still based on agricultural activities. The town church is worth visiting; the church is situated on the banks of the Reginna Maior river and historians trace the present structure to an ancient sixth century Basilica.
The marble baptismal font, dating back to the end of the thirteenth century, is of significant historical and artistic value. E-mail Comune di Maiori |
