At the foot of the slope leading to the entrance of the village is the nucleus of the Churches of the Cella and St. Luke,a very ancient place where the community of Montetiffi has always buried its dead.
The Church of Our Lady of the Cella (or of the Snows), with the Chapel of St. Joseph and the Church of St. Luke known as the Church of the Dead, constitute a particular oratorial nucleus that already existed in the Middle Ages (probable date 13th century).
It is an amalgamation of different architectural structures that have many 18th-century elements. Crossing the threshold of the entrance, equipped with an original door, one is presented with a vestibule-like room with a trapezoidal plan; the front wall has a tripartite arch that preludes the altar.
On the domed ceiling of the Church and the Chapel of St. Joseph are depicted images of popular taste dated 1904, the year of the last intervention undergone by the complex by Don Lorenzo Morelli. At a higher level and oriented toward the west is the Church of St. Luke, which has a simpler structure: a single nave with a pitched roof supported by wooden trusses.
