In the accounts of 1562 the building work is recorded in dialect.

It appears for the first time in the records of a pastoral visit of 25 June 1537, during the principality of Bernardo Clesio. In 1562 it was enlarged, and the expenses of that building work are recorded in the manuscripts of the parish archive in the words of those who did the work: payment is made for the prede da murar and the laresi grossi brought to the ghiesia de Santo Nicolò. They are three words in an account book, and they are worth a chapter in the history of the language.

The work continued until 1584, the date carved on the architrave of the portal. The altar of Saint Barbara, left in a will in 1616, was completed only in 1649. In 1724 don Nicolò Pedroni and his brother Antonio founded a benefice for a priest of the family, with the obligation of four masses a week in this church.

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.
