The medieval church of Santa Maria delle Grazie is a peculiarity: it has no facade and, oddly enough, its entrance is on the right side of the building. Below the castle is a 14th-century crucifix called the "Black Christ", one of the oldest surviving on the island. Since the 17th century it has housed the Confraternity of the Oratory of the Holy Cross and is the scene of one of the most beautiful liturgies of Holy Week.
