Simplicity and history

We revisited Offida to see this church as one of us had seen a documentary on television. This imposing church on the edge of the town survived the many mines placed during WW2, making many faithful believe it was a miracle. The vast interior is...More

Stunning little church - a must see!

The church is beautiful inside and out. There's a cost to enter but it's completely worth it as it's quirky inside. Look for the bones!

Absolutely stunning

The views walking up to the church, the countryside around it are stunning. The church itself (lower and upper levels) is simple, almost bare, but possesses an almost overpowering (and moving) beauty. I chose to get married here...

Unique Church

This is a very unique church with two very different levels. Be sure to check out the grafitti from the 1600's (actually records kept by the monks). The views over the valley are spectacular from the grounds.
