The Castle of Ragogna, probably dating to the 7th century, was already mentioned by Paolo Diacono: small sections of its ruined walls and towers, together with Lombard stone materials brought to light during the archaeological excavations in the old Pieve of S.

The parish church of S. Pietro in Ragogna is a large modern building, mainly neo-Gothic in style (1905-1921), preserving a marble altar created by Francesco Sabbadini in 1750 and 18th-century altarpieces coming from the old church.
