Not much has remained after the
1976 catastrophe, but fortunately
the most prestigious monument in the
territory was spared: it is the small
church of S. Michele dei Pagani at
Braulins, huddled as it is on a rocky spur,
probably built in Lombard times and restored
by local people in the 13th century. It preserves
13th-century frescoes (Michael Archangel in
Byzantine

style) and 16th-century ones (Trinity).
The parish churches have been rebuilt, as well
as the most prestigious civil buildings: Casa
Rabia, Ghita in Alesso or Casa Stupis, Neca at
Oncedis, both dating to the 1500s in the original
structure. From here excursions may be taken to
the Lake of Cavazzo, the valleys of Torrents
Palàr and Leale, and to Mount Corno.

the Florentine historian
Filippo Villani), of
1511 (that halfdestroyed
