Inside, you can observe particularly interesting, sacred furnishings.

ADDOLORATA CHAPEL - located near the start of the regional road for Val d’Ayas, dating back to the end of the seventeenth century. In 1980 it was deconsecrated and purchased by the Municipality, which turned it into IAT (tourist) offices and an exhibition centre.
