The Rock of Roccaporena It rises 120 meters above the village of the same name and measures 827 meters above sea level.

A chapel was built in 1919 on the top of the Rock and then in 1941 it was restored and surrounded with a colonnade. Damaged by the earthquake in 1979, it was rebuilt according to a design by the Roman architect, Riccardo Leoni. The path rises with the craggy wall to the left and to the right the trees cling to the precipice.

Below the summit of the large rock, the crystal clear water from a drinking fountain will quench your thirst after the climb. In the tiny church, the rock, on which, according to tradition, Rita used to pray, emerges from the architectural structure. The two concavities dug out side by side at the bottom of the sloping rocking table are shown to the faithful as the prints left by Rita’s knees; the smallest prints are said to be left by her elbows, and according to tradition she was taken from here by her patron saints, to be led up through the skies to the Monastery of St. Maria Maddalena in Cascia.
