Rocca Sella, 10040 Caprie

Mount Caprasio, currently known as Rocca Sella, is located at the entrance of the Susa Valley, on the northern side of the valley, opposite Pirchiriano.
Its sacredness stems from having been chosen as a place of hermitage by Saint John Vincent, considered one of the founders of the Abbey of San Michele della Chiusa (Sacra di San Michele), who died around the year 1002.

His cult is still celebrated today in the cave-chapel located in Celle, near the parish church.
