| Description: |
Punta e Faraglioni della Madonna inherit
their name from a small chappel on the "Madonna della Salvazione" dug
in the rock in what is today the cemetary . During the Roman period
these stacks were connected to the present cemetary area, and were part
of the "Summer Home of Augustus" ("villa estiva di Augusto"). One can
still admire the mansory.
One cannot reach it by foot, it is 0,6 miles from the port a 6 minute journey. From 3:00 pm onwards the rocks are in the shade.
