Nestled in nature above the hamlet of Valcimarra, this small church that seems carved into the mountain will leave you speechless.

According to legend, the sanctuary hides the cave of the Sibyl Cimaria; annexed to the church there is a hermitage. The two interior frescoes belong to the second half of the 15th century: the Crucifixion and Madonna with Child. The fresco relating to the crucifixion suggests an anonymous painter known as the Master of Patullus.
