San Giovanni Battista

The church features a single nave with vaulted ceilings, a large presbytery, and two lateral chapels positioned near the main entrance.

The church structure dates to the 14th century, with documents from 1386 confirming its existence, followed by major Baroque renovations in the 17th century.

The Gothic baptistery, created by the Zabreri brothers workshop, displays intricate stone carvings representing local artisanal mastery of the period.

The church maintains its medieval bell tower with biforate windows and contains a Renaissance-style polygonal tabernacle near the main altar.

The church houses a five-panel polyptych by Hans Clemer from 1496, depicting the Madonna with Child and multiple saints in egg tempera technique.
