San Lorenzo old church

The San Lorenzo old church stands on a coastal elevation, featuring pointed-arch entrances and traditional brick mullioned windows with lowered arches.

Dating back to 1200, the church served as a significant religious center for Benedictine monks of Lerin, who received control of the structure in 1127.

The church contains several religious artifacts, including an abbot's tomb, holy water stoup, and underground ossuaries that reflect medieval burial practices.

Located at coordinates 44.185473, 8.406382 on Strada Monsignor Luigi Giussani, the church maintains restricted access without wheelchair accommodations.

The church walls preserve Byzantine fragments and include a pre-Roman northern section, demonstrating multiple architectural periods in one structure.
