    The rupestrian church of San Biagio is located in a rupestrian village built along the rocky walls of the hollow created by the course of the Royal Canal, a short distance from the Jannuzzo farm, in the municipal area of Brindisi, about 11 km west of the capital in the direction of San Vito dei Normanni; the latter municipality is entrusted with the management of the monument.



    It is one of the main rock settlements in the region for its significant historical and artistic value, in particular for the presence of an intact and well-preserved pictorial cycle that adorns the church. Before the 12th century, a community of Italo-Byzantine monks settled here and used the caves probably already used in previous times. The settlement was inhabited until the 15th century.
