Hiking
The church - parish until 1770 - of Sant'Agata is accessed along a path flanked by nineteenth-century chapels. Along the access road you can also admire the neoclassical ossuary wanted by Costanza Rinaldi (1770 - 1856) with inside the bust of the Tremona painter Antonio Rinaldi (by Enrico Mariotti, 19th century). Sant'Agata is a very old building, from an unspecified period. The base of the bell tower is still that of the Romanesque church, while the rest of the rectangular building - with a single oriented nave - most likely dates back to a 15th or 16th century transformation.
