The pieve of Torra, on which the surrounding churches depended, has its oldest part in the bell tower: it dates from the 13th century, is square-based and Romanesque, in exposed stone, with three tiers of windows, one with mullioned windows of two lights and two with three lights. It is covered by a pyramid roof on which stands a sphere bearing a small weathervane flag and the cross; on the west side a clock is painted.

The façade is simple, gabled and of medium size, with the stone portal topped by a lintel and, above it, a lunette decorated with a fresco. At the centre, on the front of the roof, a cross bears the date the works were completed: 1624.

Inside, the single nave has four bays and four chapels, two on each side, mirroring each other and shallow, which house the side altars and the organ; the baptismal font, dating from 1558, stands in a niche on the inner west wall. The floor of the hall is of white and red limestone, in alternating squares laid diagonally to the sides of the nave.

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.
