In this cave, in the area called Trina del Monte, Potecariello, the hermit from Massaquano who lived in the first half of the last century and who left many signs of his passage on our mountains, often spent the night. In this cave, unfortunately poorly maintained today due to the carelessness and neglect of men, he who loved beauty and art even in its absolute simplicity, left to posterity on the upper part of the entrance to the cave a beautiful "Holy Family" carved in the rock and then colored in a simple but lasting way.

The cave is large, inside there is a crucifix and an altar. From the cave you can enjoy a beautiful view towards Vesuvius and the Lattari Mountains.

In Lettere there is the Benedictine hermitage, or the place where the Benedictine hermit monks retired to pray, a place also known as the veins of San Benedetto. The hermitage offers visitors an incomparable panorama of the Sarno Valley and Vesuvius, as well as allowing them to enjoy an unusual view of the historic Castello di Lettere. Around the hermitage a series of small natural cavities were probably used by Benedictine hermit monks to pray, and a completely frescoed chapel was built in one of these. Unfortunately these frescoes have not withstood the neglect of time and acts of vandalism, but what remains of them shows that they dated back to around 1,000 years ago.
