Gaeta.Sanctuary of the Split Mountain
The Sanctuary of the SS. Trinità was built in the 11th century by Benedictine monks on a slope of Monte d'Orlando but the current configuration of the complex dates back to the end of the 17th century and incorporates elements of the Neapolitan and Spanish baroque. Numerous popes, sovereign bishops and saints prayed in this sanctuary including Pope Pius IX, Bernardino of Siena, Ignazio di Loyola, Leonardo da Porto Maurizio, San Paolo della Croce, Gaspare del Bufalo and San Filippo Neri. Legend has it that San Filippo Neri lived inside the Montagna Spaccata, finding refuge on a stone bed now known as the "bed of San Filippo Neri". Along the walls of the rock, it is possible to admire majolica panels depicting the Via Crucis, dating back to 1849 and attributed to S. Bernardino da Siena, containing the verses of Metastasio. In 1434 from the top of the two rock ridges that gave rise to the name of "split mountain" a boulder came off and got stuck further down between the walls of the cleft. A small chapel dedicated to the Crucifix was built on it (14th century).
