Internal Medieval Architecture of the Benedictine Abbey SS. Trinità di Monte Sacro, Mattinata
The image reveals the interior of the Benedictine Abbey of the Holy Trinity of Monte Sacro, located in Mattinata, Foggia. The solid arches still support the secular structures, while the spontaneous flora grows among the stones of the eroded walls. These walls, once solid and imposing, now show the sign of time with openings that act as windows to the outside world. Nature has begun to claim this sacred space, with tufts of grass and moss that decorate the stone surfaces, creating a union between the ancient architecture and the surrounding natural environment. This place, now a silent witness of the past, continues to tell its history through the carved stones and semi-destroyed structures.
