Things to see and do Parc Des Eglises Rupestres

From the small square, where the view over the Murge is splendid, many paths and paths lead to sacred buildings, that one visits accompanied by a guide. These churches include that of the Madonna delle Tre Gate, that of San Pietro in Princibus, the one of Madonna della Croce, the th century, as well as that of San Falcione and its double presbytery.

This is the largest cave church in the area, with a facade of the Gothic-Gothic style made in 1303 by Leonio di Taranto. It is recognizable by its three porticos and its beautiful corniche flanked by small arches. Not far from there, also excavated in the rock, is the small church of Cristo alla Gravinella, whose facade is the th century.

After the river Agna, a little trail leads to this strange cave shaped by the sea millions of years ago. She was inhabited by man at the end of the upper Paleolithic, as evidenced by the presence of graves. Under the cave, another cavity housed 40 burials.

This cave church, known as the "Sistine Chapel" of the cave churches, reveals frescoes of the th century Original Sin, a unique testimony of the art of the Middle Ages in the Mediterranean.
