Here is where the church is located:

The first Romanesque part (1198) was followed by the Gothic part with black and white banded facing which dates back to the 13th century and was built by the Genoese, probably between 1256 and 1270.

Terraces above Corniglia in the Cinque Terre.
Some call it heroic agriculture and from this shot you can understand why.
Even if we think back a few decades, when there weren't even the small racks that today, at least in part, facilitate the transport of people and things in some places.
Dry stone walls and terraces, created by man to cultivate the vineyard overlooking the sea.
In the background the village of Corniglia, the town in the center of the Cinque Terre.
