Perso in un panorama aspro e brullo, contraddistinto dalle crete, l\u2019oratorio di Sant\u2019Ottaviano prende il nome dal Santo eremita che qui dimor\u00f2 – si dice all\u2019interno del cavo di un albero – profugo dall\u2019Africa, nel VI secolo. L\u2019ambiente anche oggi ben si concilia con lo spirito di raccoglimento e il desiderio di pace. Alla morte del sant\u2019uomo fu costruita, nel luogo dove visse, una piccola chiesa, di cui oggi si ammirano le vestigia. Alcuni secoli dopo il corpo di Ottaviano fu traslato a Volterra, ed oggi riposa nella Cattedrale di Volterra. Posto sulla via Salaiola verso Firenze, durante il medioevo, vi veniva riscossa la gabella da parte del Comune di Volterra che vi teneva un magazzino per il deposito del sale. <\/p>\n","modified":"2022-10-29T14:07:54","color":"","icon":"","noDetails":false,"noInteraction":false,"zindex":"","imageGallery":[{"src":"https:\/\/valdicecinaoutdoor.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/santottaviano-765x1024.jpg","id":10748,"caption":""},{"src":"https:\/\/valdicecinaoutdoor.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sant_Ottaviano-in-collina_dettaglio.jpg","id":10746,"caption":""},{"src":"https:\/\/valdicecinaoutdoor.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/santottaviano1-765x1024.jpg","id":10750,"caption":""}],"image":"https:\/\/valdicecinaoutdoor.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sant_Ottaviano-in-collina_dettaglio-300x225.jpg","taxonomy":{"webmapp_category":[13]},"accessibility":{"mobility":{"check":false,"description":""},"hearing":{"check":false,"description":""},"vision":{"check":false,"description":""},"cognitive":{"check":false,"description":""},"food":{"check":false,"description":""}},"reachability":{"by_bike":{"check":false,"description":""},"on_foot":{"check":false,"description":""},"by_car":{"check":false,"description":""},"by_public_transportation":{"check":false,"description":""}},"locale":"it","source":"https:\/\/valdicecinaoutdoor.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/958","wp_edit":"http:\/\/valdicecinaoutdoor.it\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=958&action=edit","translations":{"en":{"id":7332,"name":"The Saint Octavian Oratory","web":"https:\/\/valdicecinaoutdoor.it\/en\/the-saint-octavian-oratory\/","source":"https:\/\/valdicecinaoutdoor.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/7332","description":" Lost in a rugged and barren landscape of clay hills, the Oratory of Sant’Ottaviano takes its name from the hermit saint who lived here – it is said in the hollow of a tree – as a refugee from Africa in the 6th century. Even today, the environment is well suited to the spirit of meditation and the desire for peace. After the death of the holy man, a small church was built on the site where he lived, the remains of which can still be admired today. A few centuries later, Octavian’s body was moved to Volterra and today rests in the Volterra Cathedral<\/a>. Situated on the Via Salaiola towards Florence, during the Middle Ages, the gabelle of salt was levied here by the Municipality of Volterra, which kept a warehouse for storing salt.
