    The Cave of Sant'Angelo di Lettomanoppello in the Vallone di Sant'Angelo is a place of uncertain origin, mentioned in the Decrees of the First Holy Visit of the bishop of Chieti in 1844. It is believed that the hermitage is dated thanks to the presence of a statue of San Michele Arcangelo similar to that of San Tommaso in Caramanico, dating back to the XIII century.
    According to legend, the hermitage was inhabited by a man of holiness, but he mysteriously disappeared leaving behind the statue of the angel. In front of the rocky outcrop where a church once stood, today only a rectangular enclosure remains called the Bed of Sant'Angelo.
    Furthermore, in front of the church is the Fonte del Garzillo.
