Google 번역•원문 보기

The sanctuary of Sant'Antonio alla Macchia is a small church dedicated to Sant'Antonio da Padova which is located near San Pancrazio Salentino, in a green area surrounded by a pine forest. It was built in 1867 by a peasant couple as a sign of gratitude to the saint for a miracle received. It is also possible to visit a Basilian crypt dug into the rock where traces of frescoes and engravings of the Byzantine monks who took refuge there between the 6th and 13th centuries are preserved.

Included in the Byzantine Salento collection komoot.it/collection/1811756/-salento-byzantine - Always approachable, what remains of the crypt and the frescoes are clearly visible. A grate placed in front limits access to the apse and, above all, prevents you from accidentally falling into the hypogeum below. The original stairs that allowed the descent towards the cave have collapsed. To peek inside, simply go to the back where an opening allows you to peer into the darkness below. Someone is trying to clean it up at least. Who and for what purpose I don't know. https://www.salentoacolory.it/la-chiesa-cripta-madonna-della-grottella-arneo/

Focara lights up because a painting of Sant'Antonio abate was found in the cave under the church, the church was built at the end of the 1800s by a family out of devotion to Sant'Antonio da Padova in memory of their son who died prematurely. the area is full of rock caves of Basilian and then Franciscan friars. In San Pancrazio, focarottes have always been lit in honor of Sant'Antonio Abate.

The church is recent and not of particular interest but the surrounding area is mystical. It is dedicated to Sant'Antonio da Padova but curiously on the day of Sant'Antonio Abate, January 17, the focara lights up.
