Antrodoco - Santa Maria Extra Moenia

Antrodoco - Santa Maria Extra Moenia
An early Christian church on site was built here in the 5th century on the ancient remains of a temple to Diana. The structures have undergone various restorations, including in the 12th century. Documents note that a reconstructed Santa Maria was rededicated in 1054 and rebuilt in 1178 under the reign of Frederick I (aka Barbarossa).

The small hexagonal building in front of Santa Maria Extra Moenia is the Baptistery of San Giovanni. It was built in the 9th century.
