Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta

That a chapel dedicated to the Assunta already existed in Romeno in the twelfth century is probable but not certain: the first documentary mention, a generic one, dates from the early thirteenth century, and an explicit reference appears only in the following century. Towards the end of the sixteenth century the building was no longer large enough for the community, and repairs were needed to the roof and the interior walls, which cost the loss of some decorations.

In the following century conditions had not improved and a general enlargement was ordered. A clock was placed on the bell tower and the reconstruction began: the presbytery was rebuilt, with its vault decorated in fresco by the Romeno master Giovanni Battista Lampi, the sacristy was built, and the hall was enlarged with two chapels.

After an interruption the work resumed, and the church was ready towards the end of the eighteenth century with its side altars, which had a particular origin: they had been taken from a Dominican convent in Bolzano, suppressed under the provisions of Joseph II of Habsburg-Lorraine. The solemn consecration was celebrated in 1825, by Bishop Francesco Saverio Luschin.
