San Biagio Della Cima - the Abandoned Church



We're across the Italian border in a Ligurian medieval village, called San Biagio Della Cima. It's part of the commune of Vallecrosia which is just beyond Ventimiglia. Menton is on the French side of the frontier and Ventimiglia is the Italian side.

It was a dreary day when I visited and certainly I'll go back when there is more light. This is an abandoned church - jeans hang up to dry near to the faded frescoes.

Nous sommes de l'autre côté de la frontière italienne dans un village médiéval de Ligurie, appelé San Biagio della Cima  Il fait partie de la commune de Vallecrosia qui se situe juste après Vintimille . Menton est sur ​​le côté français de la frontière et Vintimille de côté italien.

C'était une triste journée quand je l'ai visité et certainement j'y reviendrai quand il y aura plus de lumière. Voici une église abandonnée - les jeans accrochés sur un séchoir à proximité des fresques fanées.
