Our journey will commence at the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, showcasing a captivating blend of late Romanesque, Renaissance, and Baroque architectural influences. Interestingly, this structure has faced destruction from both a catastrophic fire and a significant earthquake over its history.
We’ll proceed towards the Church of Purgatorio, also referred to as the Church of Santa Maria del Suffragio. As we examine the façade, you’ll notice the two skeletons adorning the tympanum above the entrance—stay tuned to learn their story during the tour!

Here, we’ll explore the extraordinary Church of San Michele, a pre-Christian sanctuary carved into the tuff, embellished with captivating Byzantine frescoes.
Ultimately, we’ll traverse the Viadotto Madonna della Stella, an 18th-century bridge that offers breathtaking views of the ravine—make sure to have your camera ready!
