The cave with the cross in S. Angelo Muxaro.
When the Carmelite Blessed Angelo came from Africa to Sicily, he sought and found room in a cave, which is now named after him. That cave was inhabited by evil spirits, who, ruffled by the holy man, fled leaving a large cross-shaped fissure on the vault.

Note: The populating of the files of the Heritage database proceeds in incremental phases: cataloging, georeferencing, insertion of information and images. The cultural property in question has been cataloged, georeferenced and the first information entered.
