This circular temple dedicated to St Michael Archangel is one of the oldest churches in Umbria. It was built on the ruin of a pagan temple.
Situated at the end of a path on a grassy slope, adorned by an ancient wall, this simple, mystical temple is a unique example of 5th-century architecture.
The floor plan was originally that of a Greek cross. The central dome seems to have been rebuilt in brick in the 14th century when three of the four chapels that formed the arms of the cross were demolished.
Many historians claim that there are several traces of the Templar Order: the circular shape of the temple, the presence of patent crosses and flowers of life both on some internal frescoes and on the floor of the circular corridor, a particular stone on the floor of the entrance, of a different colour from the others, which seems to have been placed there almost by chance and on which a pentacle is engraved (symbol associated with the Templars).
