Chiesa di San Vigilio

Consecrated twice in thirty years, the second time because the altar had been moved.

Around the 14th century a small chapel stood on the site, and in the following century the new church had already been built. In 1486 the first bell intended for the church was cast, and in 1501 the altar dedicated to Saints Rocco and Bernardo was consecrated. Between 1526 and 1527 the hall was enlarged with two bays and the apsidal part, and at the end of the works the suffragan bishop Filippo de Vecchi celebrated the solemn consecration, this time for Saint Vigilio.

A second consecration was celebrated by Mariano Manno in 1558, after the high altar had been moved. The pastoral visit of 1579 recorded the presence of three altars.

In the second half of the 19th century the hall was enlarged again, with two more bays, and the building was repainted; at the beginning of the following century the decorations were added, and in 1911 the church was raised to the status of parish church. The balustrades were removed in 1966.

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.
