The Church of San Vito was built in the last century to substitute that one little dimension which, in the past, stood under the square tower.
The Church of Santa Maria Annunziata e San Vito.
The parish church, with its mole and the cuspitade bell tower, is a structure which rises in a dominant position on a hill near the castle and you can enter through a scenographic brick staircase.
It was built at the turn of the First World War, thanks to the strength and the will of the parish priest Carlo Checcucci of San Casciano Val di Pesa, Tuscan, who rests here.
All the population was involved in the works to realize the building. A brick kiln was even opened on site.
After several years of work, the new church was inaugurated by the bishop Boccoleri , with a ceremony on April 23, 1922.
The interior and the artworks.
The interior of the church has a basilica structure, vaulted with arches and pillars. In the apse, behind the altar, there is a fresco of the patron St. Vitus, made between the years thirty and forty.
