1556 metres from here

Subsidiary church of the hamlet of Dres, above Cles, with a first mention that may date back to a document of 1322. The date 1616 above the portal marks the end of the works that lengthened it and rebuilt its façade.

Those same works raised the floor and whitewashed the interior, covering the frescoes on the side walls. They remained under the limewash until the conservation restoration begun in 2001, which brought them back to light along with the consolidation of the vaults and the tower.

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.
