Built at the end of the 15th century and consecrated in 1503. In 1611 Baron Giovanni Battista Pezzen built the chapel of San Michele there, carrying out the testamentary wishes of his brother Bartolomeo, who had left a sum of capital so that Mass would be celebrated in that chapel every day.

In 1720 the will was amended, and the village felt the consequences: without the income to pay for him, the priest was no longer there and the inhabitants of Croviana found themselves without daily Mass. The affair dragged on for a long time, and in 1901 the Comune was still writing to the episcopal office of Trento about the accounts of that benefice.

Today in the valleys

Just a moment...

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.
