Spadola, Calabria Italy
Roman Catholic
The church stands on the hill "Minerva" named for the pagan goddess whose temple was in this place. It is next to the small church of the Madonna dei Sette Dolori that is higher on the hill. The smaller church was first dedicated to San Nicola di Bari and changed its name in 1829. The St. Nicholas Church is larger and a bit lower on the hill.
