Immersed in the wooded Tuscan Apennines, on a rock spur overlooking a ravine, this sanctuary-convent is composed of a complex of buildings which has expanded over the centuries.

A few hundred meters from the route halfway up the slope between Spello and Assisi–just a few minutes along Via Fosso delle Carceri–this complex now hosts holiday apartments.

monteluco

This hermitage is a deeply spiritual place, and a just reward for the tough climb from the Valnerina. The lucus (literally “clearing in the woods where sunlight passes”) was a sacred grove for the Romans and, in the 5th century, a community of hermits fleeing from Syria settled in this forest of holm oaks and …

Gli affreschi in stile bizantino sul portale, così come il recupero e il restauro dell’edificio sono opera di padre Basilio Martin, l’eremita che vive in questo luogo. Ai pellegrini di passaggio si richiede di rispettare la scelta di solitudine rigorosa e di ascesi compiuta dall’uomo. Chi volesse, invece, trascorrere qui un periodo di autentico ritiro …
