Rock church, the first to have hosted the community of Benedictine nuns of Matera.

This rock church dates back to the 8th and 9th centuries and was home to the first community of Benedictine nuns in Matera. The monastery occupied the cavities around the church, which has three naves and is decorated with frescoes dating from the 11th to 14th centuries. The right nave remained open for worship and a mass is still celebrated there on 13th December, Saint Lucia's day. The other naves were converted into dwellings until the abandonment of the sassi in the 1950s.
