Saint Rosalia.

Just to explain this upside down photo (as a physician I always liked term "upside down stomach", which is not this case). It is a detail of a sculture of Saint Rosalia in a wall of 17th century chapel (located in a hill - probably arteficial due to a mass grave underneath) dedicated to all plague victims in this region. In the 17th century there was the largest epidemy, which led to extinction of almost 50 % of former population. Saint Rosalia was the one who terminated the epidemy.
The view from the top of the hill is amazing.
