A 12th-century Romanesque pieve beside the cemetery, its interior lined with cruciform piers and carved capitals full of sirens and other medieval symbols. The automated 'Chiese a porte aperte' system opens the door and plays a lit, multilingual audio guide, and Romanico in collina volunteers open it on the first Sunday of each month.
