Chiesa di Sant'Antonio

Between the fourteenth and the nineteenth century it changed its patron saint four times.

It appears for the first time in 1363, in the Codice clesiano, dedicated at that time to Saint Mary and dependent on the parish church of Sarnonico; the building, however, is older, probably dating from the late thirteenth or early fourteenth century.

From then on the dedication changes continually. In the visitation records of 1535 the church is listed as named after Saint Zeno and recently rebuilt. In 1695 the documents describe it as dedicated to the Immaculate Conception. After some enlargement works completed in 1715 it is rededicated to Saint Anthony of Padua.

Despite those works having just been finished, between 1729 and 1742 it was substantially rebuilt in the form it has today. In 1891 a fire damaged mainly the bell tower, and when the restoration was finished it went back to being called the church of the Immaculate Conception.

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.
