Small church in Foiano di Val Fortore dated 1701, with a rectangular plan, stone walls and a barrel vault.

The Church of the Madonna della Libera is one of the religious buildings of Foiano di Val Fortore, listed in the national catalogue of cultural heritage with the date 1701. It is a simple building with a rectangular plan, perimeter walls in stone, a pitched roof and a barrel-vaulted interior. We like this very simplicity, typical of the religious architecture of Apennine villages.We recommend including it in a stroll among the village's churches, starting from the mother church of the Rosario in Piazza San Giovanni. The village, overlooking the Fortore valley and surrounded by wooded hills, deserves an unhurried visit, perhaps on a clear day to enjoy the landscape that opens up towards the border with Apulia.
