Information
There, where the ancient road leading to Roseto Valfortore crossed with the mule track of Giarosetta that instead led to the Feudo Canal, stands today a widening at the center of which stands a gray stone cross.
The original artifact, lost, came from the cloister of the disappeared monastery of the Holy Saviour, whose materials were used mainly for the building of the Mother Church. The present cross, placed in place of the medieval one, dates back to the sixteenth-seventeenth century and is small in size, has the ends troubled; on one side there is carved the Christ, on the opposite the Virgin. The sculpture rests on a high column with a capital and square base. On the base that holds the column on which the cross is grafted, is engraved the date 1799; probably then it was re-installed, to celebrate the Bourbon restoration following the defeat of the short Neapolitan Republic.
