Oratorio della Madonna di Fatima - Giova (GR)

The village lies on a terrace, located on the right bank of the Calancasca river.

Description

In the lower part, in the locality of Molina, there is an artificial lake, closed by a dam. Buseno also includes the hamlets of Fontanol de Sot, Fontanol de Sora, Giova, Molina and Aurel. The fallow land is located in the San Carlo Mountains, at about 1200 meters above sea level.

The parish church of Saints Peter and Anthony the Abbot, consecrated in 1438, was enlarged in 1776 and restored between 1984 and 1994. The hamlet of Giova overlooks from a hill that allows it to admire the beauties of both the Calanca valley and the Mesolcina. Of particular beauty, the village contemplates an interesting peasant life and residential settlements used mainly for the holiday periods. Easily accessible thanks to the road that goes up from San Vittore. The small church on the edge of the village is particular. Built by the well-known architects Campi and Pessina, the Oratory of Our Lady of Fatima has modern architecture.
