The church dedicated to San Giovanni Battista, stands in the oldest part of the village of Torno, built in the 12th century in Roman-Gothic style presumably over a previous building of worship, the church was enlarged in the 15th century and subsequently modified between 1600 and 1700 The portal is carved in marble by sculptors of the Rodari school (15th century), the workmanship is very similar to the sculptures that we find on the Cathedral of Como.

The bell tower built in regular masonry is in Romanesque style, tall and mighty, has a floor of single-lancet windows and two of double-arched mullioned windows. The church of San Giovanni is composed of a single-nave hall divided into six bays with pointed arches (pointed sixth angle) characteristic of the Gothic style, the interior is rich in paintings and sculptures, frescoes from the 17th century by the Fiammenghino school and portions of walls frescoed in the 15th century. Worthy of note is a canvas by Giovanni Battista Trotti known as Malosso (1555-1619) depicting the Conversion of Saint Paul.
