The Osteria del Tancia was built towards the end of the Middle Ages, around the 15th century. It arose in a strategic position, on the pass of Mount Tancia, the highest peak of the Sabine Mountains, at about 800 meters above sea level. For centuries, the Osteria del Tancia represented the most important stop along the Via del Tancia, which was the main connection between the Rieti basin and the Sabina Tiberina. This road was frequently traveled by merchants, shepherds who practiced transhumance, pilgrims and bandits.

Rocca Sinibalda dominates the lush Turano Valley from above, the second most important river in Sabina after the Velino. The village is dominated by a castle founded around 1060. It was rebuilt as a fortress and noble residence in the 1630s by Cardinal Alessandro Cesarini who hired the famous Sienese architect Baldassarre Peruzzi for the occasion. It can only be visited on certain days. It is therefore advisable to inform yourself before departure.

beautiful place, worth seeing

crossroads for the hermitage of San Michele

this is the hermitage of san leonardo

This grotto was dedicated to "San Michele Arcangelo". His portrait can be found as a fresco on the rock wall. The name of the archangel Michael (coming from the Hebrew language) means “Who is like God?” He is often depicted - in paintings or as a statue - with a flaming sword, and occasionally a lance. Michael is - together with Raphael and Gabriel, occasionally Uriel is also included - one of the three or four archangels who (according to human understanding) occupy the highest rank in the heavenly hierarchy of angelic beings. Their common feast day in the saints' calendar is September 29th.
