Arta Terme is a mountain tourist
resort as well as, as its name
implies, a spa where baths were
built in 1962-64 on a design by
Gino Valle, to which the new baths
designed by Glauco Gresleri and Silvano

Giacomo Contiero, while the side altars were created
by Giacomo Pischiutti), a cycle of frescoes
by Giovanni Battista Tosolini (1785) and
wall paintings by Giovanni Moro (1937).

S. Nicoḷ degli Alzeri and S. Spirito at
Chiusini are interesting, too, the latter
containing a notable Adoration of the Magi
fresco dating from the second half of the
15th century.
