What to see near Affittacamere Loreta
The main landmark is the Santa Rita complex, in the highest part of Cascia's historic center. The basilica has a Greek-cross plan, and the entrance portal depicts scenes from the saint's life. The chapel dedicated to Saint Rita holds the saint's body.
The monastery, where the saint lived for about forty years, dates back to the 13th century and is still home to nuns of the Augustinian community.
Roccaporena is a small hamlet 6 km from Cascia and preserves the places of Rita's youth, before she entered the monastery. Activities in the area also include the walk on the trail to the Scoglio di Santa Rita, at the top of the mountain where the saint prayed.
After the 2016 earthquake many churches remained closed for a long time. It is therefore best to check in advance whether individual sites are open.
