Saint Stephen, the patron saint of this church in Soleto, is one of the first seven deacons of the original Jerusalem church and the first martyr (martyr) of early Christianity. The church commemorates him on Boxing Day, December 26th. When Stephen recounted his vision of the open heavens: "But he, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God" (Acts 7:55), the people were so outraged that they drove him out of the city and stoned him.

Beautiful square of Melpignano

In the center of Melpignano, Piazza San Giorgio is named after the patron saint of the city. The mother church of the same name overlooks it and has a portico that is quite rare in Puglia. It is one of the places where the famous popular music event called "Notte della Taranta" takes place.

In the bar in the square, I don't remember the name

Unfortunately, the crypt is not accessible to the public. It's sad to see such a jewel completely neglected!

According to neighboring residents, the crypt has been closed for a couple of years now for organizational reasons. It shouldn't have any structural problems because it was renovated in the past. There's no information about opening hours and/or days. Try contacting the Castrignano de'Greci city police to find out if and how you can visit.

Sternatia is located in Grecia Salentina, a region south of Lecce where grico, an endangered dialect of Greek origin, is spoken. The city has an ancient history rich in artistic and cultural testimonies and a walk through the alleys is a good moment to take a moment to rest from pedaling.
