EN: "Since the Middle Ages the Church of Saints Peter and Paul was used for parish services and as the location for town assemblies (citation present in 1289-1335 statutes). The current building was erected in the XVI century of the Middle Ages structure and was designed by local Architect Giovanni Beretta. Architect Beretta followed the works from the choir section to the presbytery, and then his son Pietro completed the works following the original concept (sanctification of the east side: 1553; churchyard arrangement: 1574; building completion on the west side between 1605 and about 1619; porch portal 1665)."
