Business card (vCard)
The parish of Saint Ippolito was situated in the past outside the village, with an original basilica plant, the church belongs today to a private owner and reduced to an only nave. The main altar is decorated with a fresco with the Madonna with Christ Child enthroned and the Saint Ippolito and Cassiano, which surely belongs to the corpus of the sienese Giacomo Pacchiarotti and dateable to the third decade of the XVI century. It is a travertine fountain of Longobardic time with a truncated cone, which is engraved with simple arches, today kept in the basilica of Saint Agata, to attest the ancient baptismal function which Saint Ippolito kept until 998 and which he lost in the XI century, in favour of Saint Agata.
