Regarded as one of the most beautiful Roman churches in the region, unfortunately not to enter.

The church of Santi Nazario e Celso stands, completely isolated, about two kilometers northeast of Montechiaro d'Asti on the slopes of a green hill (the "Bric San Nazario"), surrounded all around by trees except on the facade. The building catches the eye of the visitor from afar because of its high bell tower and the chromatic effect given by the alternating bands of brick and sandstone ; it is an important testimony to the Romanesque architecture that developed in the Asti Monferrato in the 12th century .
