Description

The Chapel of Santa Croce is located in the middle of the meadows in the countryside. Tradition has it that in 1583 the elders of the Valley met here with the apostolic visitor San Carlo Borromeo, from Bellinzona. The current form dates back to 1683, a date that reads above the two entrances. There is a single rectangular nave, with a flat ceiling, an almost square choir with a cross vault.
