The plaque in memory of the relics of Saint Giulia
The plaque commemorating the discovery of the relics of Saint Giulia in Lavagna.
Going down from the church of Santa Giulia towards Lavagna you come across this shrine with a plaque commemorating the attempted theft of the relic of the Saint.
The plaque reads:
“Here was found the illustrious relic of St. Giulia that a bold hand threw into the plain below after having divided the loot from the sacrilegious theft committed in the parish church on the night of March 14, 1911 – In memory the members of Rigone placed this memorial.”

The church, whose dedication to Santa Giulia ended up indicating, as often happens, not only the church but also the entire municipal hamlet, called Centaura, in which it stands, is cited as an already existing chapel in a document from the 11th century and precisely from 1031, therefore the original building was constructed before that date.
Tra le opere conservate, oltre alle reliquie di santa Giulia portate nel 1724.

I refer you to the Lavagna tourist promotion website: lavagnaturismo.it. This is the official website of the town's municipality: comune.lavagna.ge.it.
If you are looking for a nice portal that talks about all of Liguria I invite you to visit the official website of the Region: lamialiguria.it.
If you are looking for some books about the beautiful town of Lavagna I recommend: Intra Siestri e Chiaveri: Adriano V dei Fieschi tra storia e finzione and I Fieschi. Storia di una famiglia. If instead you want to have a guide that talks about Liguria and Tigullio I invite you to see: Genova e il Tigullio by Lonely Planet.

Noi abbiamo trovato 6/7 edicole incluso questo, dedicata a Santa Giulia sul territorio. Se qualcuno ha memoria di altre, ormai mancanti…forse c’era sulla pedonale Senaxi e anche sotto il cimitero all’incrocio S.Giulia-Sorlana e Costa (Carmo)…ci farebbe tanto piacere saperlo, grazie!
Mi ha sempre inquietato quel luogo
