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.
