Piazza San Pietro Caveoso

Highlight • Historical Site

Beautiful and very panoramic, Piazza San Pietro Caveoso opens up unexpected horizons. Piazza Caveoso


Beautiful and very panoramic, Piazza San Pietro Caveoso opens up unexpected horizons for you
The square takes its name from the church built on the eastern edge of the famous open space.
The large square in honor of San Pietro represents a fundamental stop for those who want to visit the Sassi up close.
It is located in a strategic point and invites you to an exceptional panoramic view towards the Murgia Materana Park.
This huge area located on the southern edge of the Gravina welcomes the visitor with the majestic rock church once dedicated to the apostles Peter and Paul.
It stands on a large block of limestone overhanging a spectacular canyon.
Point of greatest interest for tourists of the Sassi and important area for visiting the rock churches of Madonna dell'Idris, the Monastery of Santa Lucia alle Malve, the Convicinio di S. Antonio, the barbaric cemetery, and the Casa Grotta.

The first building dates back to the 13th and early 14th centuries. The church was repeatedly rebuilt over the centuries. The inside is significantly larger than you would expect from the outside and is bursting with treasures (so keep it clean).

One of the few saints who are also highly valued outside of Christianity is San FRANCESCO, known in German-speaking countries as Francis of Assisi. Francis was born in Assisi in 1181/82 and died in 1226. In his youth, the son of wealthy parents, he was more of a bon vivant, but later turned to Christ. In the half-ruined little church of San Damiano, located on the hillside outside the city walls of Assisi, he was praying one day and heard the voice of Christ coming down from the cross, calling on him to “rebuild his church”. At first he took this request literally and restored the church building; later he realized that this was primarily about the church as the community of believers.
Francis became a role model for many people, they joined him, and the "Order of Friars Minor" (Ordo Fratrum Minorum) of Francis of Assisi was created.
