The rock church of San Biagio is located in a rock village built along the rocky walls of the depression created by the course of the Canale Reale. It is one of the main rock settlements in the region: an intact and well-preserved pictorial cycle adorns the church. A community of Italian-Byzantine monks settled here before the 12th century and used the caves which had probably already been used in previous times.
