Chiesa dei Santi Maurizio e Compagni

Of the old church only the bell tower was saved, and it still serves the new one.

Parish church of Tregiovo, a hamlet of Novella. A first place of worship dedicated to Saint Maurizio existed by the 14th century, but the first mention appears in the visitation records of 1695. It obtained its baptismal font in 1742, the eucharistic reservation from 1767 and curacy status in 1887.

Until 1788 the old church was judged sufficient. From that year the community asked to be allowed to build one in a less inconvenient position, closer to the village, and the prince-bishop Pietro Vigilio Thun consented.

Demolition began immediately. Of the historic building only the bell tower was saved, and it went on doing its job for the new church too.

Gipthe bearded vulture of Valli del Noce

Hi, I am Gip. I am a bearded vulture: my species had vanished from the Alps in the 1930s, and the first one born in Trentino in at least a hundred and fifty years took flight from Val di Rabbi this past 16 July.

Ask me about places, the valleys or the people who work here. I answer with what is in our pages: if I do not know something, I will tell you.
