The interior, octagonal in shape with a domed pavilion, alloy and entirely whole is covered in polychrome marble and inlaid work and houses several valuable works, including original painting of "Black Madonna" and valuable grave of Compagna barons, announced by marble statue of an angel in the act of lifting a bronze curtain, nineteenth-century work attributed to sculptor Francesco Ierace.
