The Parish of St. Pancrazio, about 7 Km (12 minutes), dating back to the most archaic of Romanesque art (the first half of the eleventh century).
The Parish of St. Giovanni in Sugana, about 12Km (17 minutes), recorded since the eleventh century and rebuilt in the late Romanesque shape in the early thirteenth century, retains a "Pietà" attributed to the workshop of Giovanni Della Robbia; at the side of the Church there is a beautiful Renaissance cloister.
