This abbey was founded in 973 by Benedictine monks in this place had a mill for the production of oil. From this comes the name of "S. Maria Olearia. At first glance it is difficult to see the abbey, it was integrated in a very harmonious in the landscape. Santa Maria de Olearia rock is an ancient settlement dating from the tenth century entirely carved into the rock, gradually expanded to become a monastery.Structured in three overlapping chapels at the lowest level we find the oldest, known as the "Chapel of the Catacombs" or "crypt".

On the east wall of the antechamber of the crypt are the best preserved frescoes of the complex as "the Virgin with Saints." To the right of the Virgin Mary a holy beard wearing a white robe with red and yellow robe clavi; left to a Saint in arms. Continuing in the crypt there are three figures with halos, whose heads, unfortunately, have been removed. This assumes the images were of Christ flanked by St. John the Baptist and St. Giovanni Evangelista.

The central apse of the crypt presents a Christ, standing, dressed in a white tunic with a cloak of gold flanked by two archangels Byzantines. A flight of stairs leads to the main chapel. The main chapel consists of a cross-vaulted rooms and spaces with a secondary barrel vault.Once the cross has a central frame in which, probably, there was an image of Christ.

From the terrace in front of the main chapel you get to Chapel of St. Nicholas.Outside it, on the facade overlooking the courtyard, you can see a medallion with "The Hand of God" and to the locket, two figures of angels Hosanna ".
