Church dating back to the 13th century.

It was rebuilt in 1816.

The church was originally built in the early 13th century.

Crumbled around 1540, was rebuilt in 1816.

The earliest record can be found in the deed of 1235, by which the bishop of Vercelli ceded it to the canons of Vezzolano.

It stood 200 meters higher than the present church; a pillar still commemorates its ancient site.

Distant and not easily accessible, it was abandoned by the population, who found it more convenient to access new churches.

It stands in a panoramic position.
