Churches in Le Forna is a self-guided tour of the historic Catholic churches clustered in the hamlet of Le Forna, on the northern tip of Ponza Island. This activity focuses on the small, centuries-old places of worship that anchor the village, including the Chiesa di San Silverio and the Chapel of the Madonna delle Grazie. Visitors walk between the churches on foot, observing their simple stone facades and interior altars.
What to expect
- The tour covers two to three churches within a 300-metre radius, taking roughly 45 minutes at a walking pace.
- Each church is open to the public without an entry fee, and visitors can enter freely during daylight hours.
- The interior of the Chiesa di San Silverio contains a wooden statue of the patron saint, carried in the annual August procession.
- The Chapel of the Madonna delle Grazie sits on a cliff edge, offering views over the Tyrrhenian Sea from its small forecourt.
- The route follows paved lanes and a short stone stairway, suitable for visitors with moderate mobility but not for wheelchair users.
- This activity suits travellers interested in religious architecture and local island history, rather than those seeking guided commentary or exhibits.
