Morgia Sant'Angelo, Cave church and rock formation in Cerreto Sannita, Italy.
The natural limestone formation contains a cave that functions as a church with multiple altars carved into the rock walls.
The Longobards transformed the cave at the base of the rock into a place of worship dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel in 700 AD.
The cave served as both a religious sanctuary and a community gathering place, documented in local statutes from medieval times.
The church structure sits at coordinates 41.280286 latitude and 14.600739 longitude, accessible via Via Cesina di Sopra in Cerreto Sannita.
The rock formation naturally resembles a lioness and contains archaeological evidence of human activity, including bronze artifacts and pottery fragments.
