The construction of the Church of Santa Maria in Poggio and the adjacent convent was begun at the beginning of the seventeenth century and expanded at the end of the century. The structure initially belonged to the Carmelites and then to the Franciscans.
The visit to the ancient village of Chia begins in the Renaissance part of the town and more precisely from Piazza Garibaldi where the Madonna delle Grazie Church is located on the left, begun in 1617 as attested in the epigraph on the portal architrave.
The church of Sant’Eutizio with the adjoining convent, a complex entrusted to the Passionist Fathers, stands on the immediate outskirts of Soriano and is part of the Parish of St. Paul of the Cross.
The church, dedicated to St. Eutizio, the primitive cathedral of Soriano, is located inside the town, in the ancient district of the fortress. Built in the medieval period, it underwent numerous changes in the Renaissance period, but its current appearance is due to the Albani, who had the building renovated around 1718.
