    Ancient Church. Was previously a temple of the Mithraic cult. You can even see the gutter through which the blood of the bull victims drained

    The Chiesa della Madonna del Parto in Sutri is a unique church carved entirely out of tuff stone. Dating from the 13th-14th centuries, this church was originally a Mithraeum, a temple dedicated to the Eastern god Mithras, from the 3rd century. The church has a square vestibule with frescoes depicting the Madonna and Saints, San Cristoforo and events related to the life of San Michele del Gargano. The main space is divided by tuff pillars into three naves. The church is now an important part of the urban park of the ancient city of Sutri.
