Situated along the Ascolani Road, the contrada takes its name from the first family that went to live there. The Basciani's family.

For its strategic position, the area  developed quickly. In a few years, thanks to the vitality and initiatives of the inhabitants, Contrada Basciani became an active craft, industrial, business center.  The counterbalance to the rapid and positive economic development  was the discontent for the lack of a religious identity.latent for the absence of a local parish.So it was decided to enstablish an ecclesiastic circumscription and taking away part of the bordering areas.

In 1977 got birth the Parish of Immacolata of Basciani. Only after 20 years began the construction of a new Church (in 2003).
