It is located at 1025m above sea level among beech woods. It was founded by the Cistercians or by the Templars in the 9th century. It was restored in the 20th century and consists of a church which was once a small monastery also used as a shelter for wayfarers.

The hermitage of Sant'Egidio is an ancient monastery on the eastern side of the Matese above the town of Bojano. It consists of a church with a single nave with a statue of the saint and is flanked by a mountain refuge equipped with picnic tables and a spring for water.

The name Civitanuova, which means precisely "new city", was attributed to it to distinguish it from Civitavetula, i.e. the old city, which today is the village of Duronia a few km away from here.
