Among the oldest churches in Teggiano, it boasts ancient and medieval works or fragments
Founded at the time of the Normans, the Church of San Michele is located on the edge of the town, with apses protruding towards the valley below.
There is also the bell tower with multiple overlapping styles, with ogival windows at the bottom and rounded windows at the top.
Access to the church is from a loggia with two pointed arches resting on a central column with a reused shaft and base and a capital from the 12th century. The interior has a single hall, with a raised presbytery over a vast crypt. The crypt, dedicated to Santa Venera, is covered by a network of cross vaults with a square plan, resting on ancient marble columns.
Inside the church there are some stone fragments attributed to the thirteenth-century artist Melchiorre da Montalbano, from liturgical furnishings probably removed from the church itself or, perhaps, from the cathedral. In the crypt there is also a fourteenth-century fresco depicting the Virgin enthroned between saints Venera and John the Baptist.
