The first written mention of the place of worship at Cavizzana dates to 1400, and just two years later work began on a new church on the same site: the building was completed in 1427. Two centuries later, between 1618 and 1628, the building was considerably enlarged, and in 1735 the church was raised to a curacy of the pieve of Malé, that is, of the church of Santa Maria Assunta.

The façade is gabled, with two pitches, and on the right it widens because of the structure that corresponds to the chapel of the first fifteenth-century building: what remains of the oldest church is not hidden underneath, it can be seen from outside. The portal has a lintel and is flanked by two low rectangular windows with iron grilles.

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.
