Oratorio di Sant'Anna

Truly magical corner, you can breathe it

A very special place. Really beautiful in its simplicity. To be reviewed.

Pietra Perduca is a small ophiolitic mass of magmatic rock on which the oratory of Sant'Anna is built, built with local stone around one thousand. For mountain lovers, on the north face of the cliff there is a climbing gym. On the top, to see, the rectangular tanks carved into the rock in prehistoric times, always full of water that does not freeze in winter and never evaporates, even during the hottest summers, inhabited by a rare species of newts. A few hundred meters from the church, an equipped area has been built which can be used all year round where, on the last weekend of July, the traditional "Festa della Perduca" takes place. If you want to escape from the summer heat, enjoy a beautiful view and enjoy live music, dancing and enjoy the specialties of Piacenza cuisine with excellent grills this is the right place.

Oratory on the Perduca Stone. Place to visit in silence and recollection. The tanks with a rare species of newt are very characteristic.

A suggestive corner of the province of Piacenza a few minutes from the city
