The Church of San Francesco da Paola is a religious building located in the heart of the historic center of Matera , which has housed the archconfraternity of the city under the leadership of the Rector A. Tortorelli since 1948.
It plays an important role for the city since it is here that the Madonna della Bruna is welcomed during the procession of the shepherds on 2 July.
This church was built in stages due to lack of funds, but thanks to the tenacity of the brotherhood and the Congregation initially composed of labourers, craftsmen and shopkeepers, but then also of noble names such as Malvezzi, Gattini, De Miccolis, Sorrentino and Venusio.
