The’event

What lies hidden beneath the floor of an ancient church? Every archaeological excavation is a journey through time, capable of bringing to light precious evidence of a place’s history and the people who once lived there.

During this conference, participants will discover the results of the archaeological investigations carried out at the former church of San Francesco, where the discovery of features such as graves, a well and ancient floor levels has enabled scholars to reconstruct the various phases of the building’s construction and its evolution over the centuries.

The event will be rounded off with a tour of the excavation site, offering the chance to see the archaeological finds up close and understand how the work of archaeologists transforms these artefacts into historical narratives. A unique opportunity to rediscover the region’s hidden heritage and be captivated by the secrets buried beneath the ground.
