Background

These are the caves where the Benedictine nun, patron saint of Cingoli, born in Gubbio, lived. S. Sperandia (co-patroness of Cingoli, lived between 1216 and 1276) leads a life of prayer and penance in the narrow cave, interwoven, according to popular tradition, with miraculous events. The cave was arranged with the stone pavement, the parapet walls and the access stairway during the second half of the century. XX. The construction of the chapel can be traced back to the century. XIX.

To reach the cave, take the provincial road that from Cingoli leads to San Severino Marche, after passing the town of Colcerasa, you will find a first intersection on the left that leads to Macerata, about 200 meters further on, always on the left, you will find another road that goes up, follow it for about 5 kilometers and follow the signs. Of course, the last stretch can only be covered on foot and the path leading to the caves is steep and with many steps. To get to the hermitage located along a rocky wall it is necessary to make 430 steps of which the last 52 are very steep stone, the others are made with wooden railway sleepers.
