The region has suffered from innumerable earthquakes and is still a seismically active area. The town of Potenza, the highest provincial capital above sea level in Italy, is built between two valleys. The town was mostly rebuilt after an earthquake in 1857. Thus the earthquakes and the severe damage caused during World War II have lost the town many of its historical buildings. Consequently the overall impression of the town is one of modern concrete buildings. One beautiful church which survives is the church of San Francesco jus off the main piazza, the " Piazza Pagano" a treasure of the church is the Byzantine icon of the Madonna del Terremoto. One other place of interest in the town is the "Museo Archeologico Provinciale" which contains many artefacts from the times of the Romans in Basilicata. An earthquake is a phenomenon that results from the sudden release of stored energy in the Earths crust that creates seismic waves. ...
