Chiesa e Convento di S. Maria di Casole : 73043 Copertino, Province of Lecce, Italy

Beautiful church, brought back to life by the restoration that makes us appreciate its historical and artistic value. The volunteers who take care of it are very kind and available to act as guides. This Christmas they had set up a beautiful nativity scene inside the church.

A delightful medieval church with 16th-century frescoes, it was saved from decay thanks to the goodwill of a volunteer association from Copertino, who allow free visits in the afternoons from 5:30 to 7:00 pm.

Thanks to the Fra Silvestro da Copertino association, formed by a group of volunteers, we can admire this wonderful historical monument with its various frescoes, including the fresco depicting Fra Silvestro Calia.
