Chiesa parrocchiale dei SS Pietro e Paolo
The parish church of St. Peter and Paul, first mentioned in 1219, now shines in the Baroque style thanks to renovations and extensions in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Description

In 1611, the church of SS Pieto e Paul was renovated and enlarged with a side chapel to the north, a new choir in 1626 and a new side chapel to the south in 1773-1783. During excavations in 1959, a double hall from the 13th century was discovered, the corners of which are integrated into the current triumphal arch. The church underwent further restoration in 2002. On the walls of the nave, near the side altars, there are fragments of late Gothic wall paintings from the third quarter of the XV century.
