The ancient church, first mentioned in a document from 1190, but with works of art dating from the period of the spread of Christianity in the late 4th century and the early Middle Ages, was restored at the end of the 13th century under the direction of the architect and sculptor John and completed by Giovanni Griglio in the third or fourth decade of the 14th century. The temple was re-consecrated on Pentecost 1337.

Bike paths like this one are built to top-notch quality in Italy; there's nothing to complain about. The route runs to San Giorgio and has the feel of a paved surface, covered in white concrete in many places and covered with soft, white gravel: like a Strade Bianchi up the mountain. It's a rather unique bike path with two river crossings over small bridges. It blends beautifully into the natural surroundings and provides a little adventure.
