Chapels
Its no Calvary to discover Pietracorbara's wealth of chapels,
but rather a promenade from the plain to the mountain, chapel
by chapel.

Saint Antoine
of Padoue has had two lives
in Pietracorbara: the first chapel, located on the beach, was
destroyed by the Germans. The second chapel was built after World
War 2, 400 meters higher, and is set back from the village road.

Saint
Léonard is a simple little
building with a cement porch roof, and was constructed in the 19th
century, alongside the main road to the village. |

Saint Catherine
of Alexandria has her sanctuary
in Ornetu. It is a very old chapel which is cleaned inside..

Saint Antoine the Hermit
is located between Oreta suprana and Oreta suttana.
This beautiful chapel is in harmony with its surroundings and
faces the sea. It dates from the 16th century.
