Gravedona - S. Vincenzo

Gravedona - S. Vincenzo
It is believed, that this place was a "sacred ground" already in pagan times. The neighbouring Santa Maria del Tiglio was erected within the 11th or 12th century on foundations of a baptistery, that may date back to the 5th or 6th century.

S. Vincenzo, the parish church, is a Romanesque structure with a baroque interior. It was as well built on already existing foundations. The large crypt under the choir of S. Vincenzo is pretty unmodified and dates back to the 11th/12th century.
