Among these, a refined crucifix and several elegant Roman-era stones stand out, bearing witness to the site\u2019s continuous use over time. Also of particular value are the frescoes, including the Madonna del Rosario with Saint Dominic and Saint Catherine from 1583, two 17th-century paintings dedicated to the same saints, and the work The Dream of Saint Joseph, dating from the 18th century.<\/p>\n<p>Originally, the church had a single bell tower, which was replaced in 1914 by the two towers that stand today and define its silhouette. The parish church\u2019s current appearance is the result of numerous restoration and renovation works carried out over the centuries, which have helped to preserve its historical and artistic value.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover the Church of Santa Lucia in Percile: with its 15th-century origins, 16th-century frescoes and sacred artworks, this charming complex is linked to Orsini Castle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":106639,"template":"","village-conntection":[50914],"what-to-see-region-and-provinces":[76148,76152],"what-to-see-category":[30159],"class_list":["post-310985","what-to-see","type-what-to-see","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","village-conntection-percile-it","what-to-see-region-and-provinces-lazio-en","what-to-see-region-and-provinces-rome","what-to-see-category-place-of-cult"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/what-to-see\/310985","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/what-to-see"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/what-to-see"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/what-to-see\/310985\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/106639"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=310985"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"village-conntection","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/village-conntection?post=310985"},{"taxonomy":"what-to-see-region-and-provinces","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/what-to-see-region-and-provinces?post=310985"},{"taxonomy":"what-to-see-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/what-to-see-category?post=310985"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
