The small church of San Lorenzo was the first of Cave and was built on a catacomb complex.
Initially it also had a small monastery of Benedictine monks.
It is quoted in a 988 document by the Abbey of Subiaco.
The church was expanded in the XIII and XVI centuries.
The interior is three naves separated by columns, clearly made up of Roman remains, and is covered by frescoes from the 15th and 16th centuries.
Under the church is the original catacomb frescoed between the X and the XIII century, which is accessed by a trapdoor in the floor.
