Chiesa di Maria Madre della Chiesa

Cogolo, seat of the municipality of Peio, had grown too large for the old parish church of Santi Filippo e Giacomo to be enough, and it was decided to replace it. The project began in 1955 and was ready only in 1969; work started in 1970 with the blessing of the foundation stone and ended in 1974, with the consecration celebrated on 21 July of that year by Bishop Alessandro Maria Gottardi.

The building is made of reinforced concrete with granite blocks, with elevations that follow a broken line, and stands opposite palazzo Migazzi, in what was then the outskirts of the village. Its most distinctive feature is a large skylight rising above the almost flat roof; inside, the nave is very wide and the ceiling is entirely of wood, with the presbytery area laid out according to the prescriptions of the Second Vatican Council.

One thing is missing, however: the bell tower. It was never built, and for the bells the one belonging to the old parish church, not far away, is still used.
