Holiday apartment in Finocchieto – discover churches, history and mountains

This creates a destination where fortified local history and religious architecture can be experienced through tangible buildings.

Churches and historical traces

The sacred character is particularly vivid in the Chiesa della Madonna del Carmine. The single-nave rural church was built in 1649. Its simple interior contains a venerated fresco of the Madonna del Carmine. Another historical stop is the Oratorio della Vergine near the cemetery, built in 1530. Every year on January 22, Finocchieto celebrates the feast day of Saint Vincent with a local festival.
