The church of Santa Maria Assunta, located in the middle of the desert village of Alianello Vecchio, presents itself in conditions of marked deterioration. Its facade, eroded by time and elements, silently testifies to the long absence of care and maintenance, outlining a picture of complete and irreversible abandonment.
