The Church of Croce Santa, recorded in the 13th century as San Simeone and once a grange of the cathedral, became a parish in 1927. Enlarged in 1939, it features an 18th-century exterior with a bell tower topped by a maiolica dome. Inside are the wooden statue of St. Roch by Gregorio Palmieri (1770), a marble altar to the Madonna della Sanità, and in the modern crypt, a 15th-century Pietà linked to Monsignor Felice Canelli, whose beatification cause began in 2009.
