Sant'Emiliano in Congiuntoli, Medieval abbey in Scheggia e Pascelupo, Italy.
Description
Sant'Emiliano in Congiuntoli is an abbey in Scheggia e Pascelupo with thick stone walls and a Romanesque church featuring two naves and sparse windows. The structure now serves as a private residence and farmhouse, making public access limited.
History
The abbey was founded in the 10th century on the borders of the Duchy of Spoleto and dedicated to Saint Emiliano, a martyr from Numidia. He was executed during the reign of the Roman emperor Valerian.
Culture
The abbey once held 14th-century frescoes from the Riminese school depicting saints until they were removed in 1906. One surviving piece is now displayed in Fabriano's art gallery, offering insight into the religious artwork that decorated these walls.
