The Sanctuary of the Madonna dei Cipressi is one of Fontegreca's most symbolic sites, built in the 17th century beside the Sava River. Tradition holds that the statue of the Virgin was found among the centuries-old cypress trees that still surround the sanctuary today, giving rise to the heartfelt celebration of September 7th, featuring processions, folk music, and traditional tastings. At the end of the paved road leading to the sanctuary, you'll find a fountain where you can fill your water bottle before continuing toward the Cipresseta.
