This small sanctuary is highly revered, especially for its religious iconography and its panoramic location, offering spectacular views of the surrounding valley. This makes it not only a place of worship but also an excellent destination for those seeking tranquility and peace.

The relatively simple yet evocative building dates back to the 14th-15th centuries and has a central nave and an altar.

The legend surrounding the Madonna del Marengolo tells that the image of the Madonna, depicted with Child, was found in a field near Corciano, a place called ‘Marengolo’. After the statue was found, it was brought to the church, where miracles began to occur, attracting the attention and devotion of the faithful.
