멋진 중세 마을. 아름다운 골목길을 방문할 가치가 있습니다

아주 좁은 길을 가진 아주 작은 마을. 제가 가장 좋아하는 곳 중 하나입니다.

CHURCH OF THE MADONNA DEL ROTOLINO (or dell'arrotino) (1555) Small devotional chapel originally built in 1555 thanks to the efforts of the then governor of Vitorchiano Alessio Boccamazza. Located along the "piagge" road that led through the vegetable gardens to the countryside and the church of San Michele. The name derives from a miraculous event that happened to a knife-grinder who was passing by and who saw a large peperino stone (located near the chapel) fall on him and was miraculously saved by the protection of the Virgin Mary. Inside there was a stucco altar with an image of a Madonna with the child in her arms. Initially the church was in the care of the Community of Vitorchiano but around 1600 it passed under the protection of the parish. Having fallen into ruin during the 20th century, the chapel was rebuilt in 2003.

On the road to Grotte Santo Stefano there is a sacred Moai statue that originates from Easter Islands. The statue is about 10 m high and was made in the early 1990s. For this purpose, 11 members of the Maori Atan family came over from Easter Islands. They were followed for 4 weeks in a television programme on the RAI. The statue is the only one in the world that is located outside Easter Islands. The statue was made from a single piece of peperino stone. From this panoramic point you have a beautiful view of the old town of Vitorchiano, which is built entirely on a rock. In addition, your wish can come true if you touch the navel of the Moai with your hands…

Nice free parking at the train station downstairs. Upstairs, a supermarket and a small, friendly cafe.
