Church of San Giovanni Battista
Founded in 1340 by the bishop of Luni, this church is one of the most iconic landmarks of the village. Its Ligurian Gothic style, with a façade of marble and grey stone, reflects the skill of medieval craftsmen who shaped its enduring character.
Inside, visitors are welcomed by three luminous naves supported by elegant columns, a marble pulpit, and a precious 17th-century organ still played during celebrations. Every detail tells the story of the community’s deep faith and centuries-old traditions.
From the churchyard, the view is breathtaking: Riomaggiore’s colorful houses cascade down towards the sea, creating postcard-perfect vistas, especially at sunset. More than a monument, the church is a living place of devotion and contemplation, where past and present intertwine in timeless harmony.
