Church of the convent of the Porziuncola, founded in 1635, with 18th-century canvases and a large 16th-century crucifix.

The church of Santa Maria degli Angeli, also known as the Porziuncola, belonged to the convent founded in Perdifumo in 1635. We recommend going in: the altars are adorned with 18th-century canvases and well-crafted statues of saints.On the back wall of the presbytery a large 16th-century crucifix is venerated which, according to tradition, arrived in the village together with the statue of the Madonna of the Rosary. As you leave, look up: above the entrance door there is a small fresco of the Porziuncola, probably from the 18th century, very dear to the locals, who consider it miraculous.
