The convent structure of S. Croce was built outside the castle of S. Anatolia, along the medieval route connecting with Scheggino through the ancient settlement of Pozzano. The construction of the church dates back to the 13th or 14th century, as some surviving architectural elements suggest: the bell tower, typical of many Romanesque churches in the area, seems to confirm the dating. The convent of the Minor Observants was annexed to the church of S. Croce, which also housed the Franciscan Third Order. There was also an oratory of S. Antonio with the "Mulari" association
