Here, in the second half of the 17<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0century a lay group that practiced self-flagellation used to meet, hoping thereby to ensure themselves a place in heaven \u2026 accompanied by the sound of the lash\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The now abandoned building is a rare trace of the existence of this group of people and their practice, which united a<strong>\u00a0life of devotion, meditation and prayer<\/strong>\u00a0with that of penitence. Between the 13<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0and 14<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0centuries they attracted converts not just in the Val Cavallina, but throughout Europe.<br>According to local sources in Borgo di Terzo there were two orders of Disciplines, organised according to the colour of their vestments: the Green and the White. However, both were practitioners of\u00a0<strong>public flagellation<\/strong>\u00a0with whips, or sticks that had cords attached, with knots tied at the end or sharp iron barbs. This took place during long religious processions throughout the town.<br>The\u00a0<strong>Green Disciplin<\/strong>es\u00a0gathered in the church of San Rocco, which now no longer exists, while the <strong>White Disciplines<\/strong> on the other hand met in this now-abandoned building, which can be accessed by entering through the portico of Sarnico stone at the centre of a very simple fa\u00e7ade, faced in rough plaster.<br>On the inside it is still possible to see a main altar made of wood and a statue of the dead Christ, surrounded by a balustrade of red and black marble beyond two oval frames. The little, square, sandstone bell tower can be accessed from the nave of the church.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A small courtyard divides the simple church of the Disciplines from the parish church of the village.
