Hermitage and Chapel of st.Maria in Centrella - Anacapri

The small convent was built at the end of the XIVth century by Dominican friars and consists of a small church with adjoining cottages, small monastic cells and panoramic terraces. The late-Gothic motifs are especially noticeable in the extrados roofing made from beaten lapillus that forms an extraordinary set of shapes for an excellent contrast with the rocks in the background.Uninhabited for quite some time, it is opened up on occasion by volunteers from Anacapri.
