The Sanctuary of Santi Cosma e Damiano is located at an altitude of 400 meters. Inside, silver busts of the seventeenth century are venerated with the relics of the two saints inside, always inside two small plaster statues depicting the two saints to whom the sanctuary is dedicated. According to tradition, the sanctuary has existed since 1130, the first official document concerning it, however, dates back to 1523. In fact, in 1130 it seems that a chapel was built in this place, but this statement cannot be supported by any documentation that proves its actual presence. on that date. The current sanctuary as we can see it today dates back to the construction of 1523. Inside, the church has a single nave with a coffered ceiling. The presbytery ends with an apse. A beautiful cycle of frescoes depicting the life of Saints Cosma and Damiano of the Neapolitan school adorns the church. The ceiling was instead made by various artisans of Agnone. Inside the sanctuary we also find a collection of ex-votos that include painted tablets, sheets with inscriptions, photographs, anthropomorphic figurines and other objects.

Rionero Sannitico (IS), la Chiesa Madre
La Chiesa Madre, dedicata a San Bartolomeo Apostolo e costruita nel 1717, rappresenta il maggior esempio artistico tra gli edifici sopravvissuti alla guerra e ai terremoti. Al suo interno vi sono ancora presenti degli affreschi, di indubbio valore storico-artistico, risalenti al XVIII secolo. Di altri affreschi, gravemente danneggiati dal terremoto del 1984, è rimasta sfortunatamente solo qualche fotografia a testimonianza di come la Chiesa abbia vissuto tempi più floridi.
