San Michele Cave

Arriving in this cave in the woods after having walked the stone staircase arouses a deep emotion. Legend has it that the Archangel Michael, following a battle, locked up a demon in the bowels of the mountain and that he now watches over that this being does not return to earth. This place today is above all a destination for climbers who find something to enjoy themselves in the nearby limestone cliff.

This cave was named after Archangel Michael. The name (from the Hebrew) means "Who is like God?". He is often depicted - in paintings or as a statue - with a flaming sword, occasionally also a lance. Along with Raphael, Gabriel, and Uriel, Michael is one of the four archangels who (according to human conception) hold the highest rank in the heavenly hierarchy of angelic beings. Their common feast day in the calendar of saints is September 29th.

beautiful place, worth seeing
