    The small church of San Magno is located in the Alta Murgia National Park. Its peculiarity is to enclose two buildings with different functions in the same building: a neviera, which served to pack the snow and reuse it in the summer as an important source of water, and a small church for the population living in the nearby farms. The basement of the neviera is the oldest, later the church was built, which initially had a barrel roof, which was later rebuilt with a gable roof, probably after a collapse. On the south-east façade there is a window and on the roof a small bell tower in tuff surmounted by an iron cross. There is a trace of the church in a notarial document called "Donation of San Magno" of 1128, mentioned in the 9th volume of the Diplomatic Code of Bari, which testifies to the existence of the church already at the beginning of the 12th century.
