The Church of San Filippo D'Agira in Passo Murazzo - Limina is a small place of worship surrounded by nature a few kilometers from the town centre, on the right bank of the Agrò torrent.
The church performs the functions of a sanctuary and commemorates the passage of Saint Philip in these places which took place in 66 AD. The term Murazzo in fact derives from Moro, i.e. San Filippo il Moro.
The date of construction of the church is not known but from the information gathered it is certain that it was built between 1915 and 1922.
Inside the church there is a marble altar, a canvas of San Filippo D'Agira and a plaque commemorating the donation of a bell.
In this place the Christmas Eve is celebrated of the feast of San Filippo, on May 11th, with the participation of a large multitude of devotees.
