Description

The Church of San Michele Arcangelo has a simple gabled façade, with a single door and 20th-century bell tower.

Inside there are seven altars. The first two on the right and on the left are modest works from the early 1800s, the last two are late 16th-century, repainted in the 1800s. The altar of the Madonna of the Rosary is interesting, with the Fifteen Mysteries and a half canvas below representing Saints Dominic and Catherine of Siena facing a Madonna and Child carved in wood, from the early 1500s. The canvas of St. Giles, co-patron of Savelli, shows the hermit with the doe he healed.

At the sides of the high altar are two large candelabras with a noble coat of arms (17th cent.) that come from Sant’Agostino in Norcia. The organ was made by Ferdinando Fedeli of Foligno (1830) and was restored in 1993. A room next to the sacristy has 14th-century capitals, wooden furniture, church furnishings and a wooden statue coming from the ruined church of the Madonna del Colle.
