Sant'Agnese, Medieval church at Sella di Sant'Agnese, Gemona del Friuli, Italy.

The Sant'Agnese church stands at 427 meters above sea level, facing north toward the Rivoli Bianchi gravel beds and Tagliamento valley.

The church was constructed in the 12th century on what might have been an ancient pagan temple site, later incorporating a hermitage that became a convent.

The church became a pilgrimage destination in the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly for mothers seeking healing for their infants with milk crust.

The church underwent reconstruction between 1983 and 1984 using original materials after sustaining substantial damage in the 1976 Friuli earthquake.

The location served as a filming site for scenes in Mario Monicelli's 1959 film 'La Grande Guerra'.
