There was a small but fascinating and beautiful crib exhibition at the side part of the church. These were well worth looking at as they were varied in style and content as well as historically interesting.
The church itself was closed to visitors but you can take photos through the glass doors, which I did. The altar area looked particularly stunning.

Worth a visit - a beautiful church visible from the minute you arrive in Positano. Church workers will give you a shawl to cover your shoulders if required whilst you visit.

Sitting in a commanding position by the seaside in Positano, the church is extremely impressive. The church was closed to visits but we could still see inside through the glass windows. The interior painting is relatively simple but stunning. Still, it is worth at least an attempted visit.

As a wedding party was beginning to assemble outside, I only had a very brief time inside this beautiful church. Well worth a visit. The best attraction in Positano

Beautiful church with so much art, and so much history of Positano contained inside. I learned a lot about Italian and biblical history inside.

Came here just for this and it was worth it! Nice area to walk around and shop as well. The only mistake I made was that I parked too far up the hill thinking I was closer. It was a bit of a hike but worth the views and shopping.

This peaceful church was a quiet, cool respite after hiking up many stone steps in Positano. There is lovely mosaic artwork at the entrance of the church…be sure to pause and admire it. There was only one other tourist inside, so it truly was a spiritual sanctuary to pray for friends struggling with illness and a safe journey back home.

There’s a museum of ancient ruins under the church. Totally worth visiting.
Frescos underneath ate very well preserved

I didn't think it was such an impressive church. But you will pass by it, so have a look. The dome is quite nice.
