    Hiking

    The way up to the church is worth it

    Hiking

    On the beach of Tropea, on a sandstone rock, the Benedictine pilgrimage church of Santa Maria dell'Isola stands alone. The first founding of the church dates back to the early Byzantine Middle Ages. Around 1066, the Normans handed over the church of Santa Maria dell'Isola to the Abbey of Montecassino. A severe earthquake southwest of Tropea in 1905 destroyed parts of the small church. Later, restoration work was carried out. The basilica and the rock are still owned by the Benedictine Abbey today.
