Chiesa di San Rocco
It was founded by a nobleman who survived the plague of 1510.

In 1497 a church is documented on the site, but dedicated to Saint Lawrence. After 1510 it was rebuilt at the wish of Bernardino Malanotti, a nobleman who had survived the plague of that year, and dedicated to Saints Fabian, Sebastian and Roch: the three invoked against contagion. It was consecrated in 1512 by the suffragan bishop Michele Iorba.
The interior was frescoed in 1534, and of that decoration only a single panel remains, on the right wall of the nave. In the 17th century the church was enlarged with side chapels and the sacristy.
In 1838 an order was given to set up the Way of the Cross inside and to abandon the outdoor one, which wound along the road towards Terzolas and included the chapel of Sant'Apollonia.
