Pieve di Sant'Ippolito
The Church of Sant'Ippolito was once located outside of the village, and originally a basilica plan, the church is now privately owned and reduced to a single aisle.
The altar is decorated with a fresco of the Madonna and Child Enthroned and the Saints Ippolito and Cassiano, with certainty inserted in the body of James Siena Pacchiarotti and dated to the third decade of the sixteenth century.
It is a source of travertine era Lombard trunk of a cone, carved with simple arches, now preserved in the Basilica di Sant'Agata, demonstrating the ancient baptismal function that Sant'Ippolito held until 998 and lost, in the XI century just for Sant'Agata.
