The Chiesa Parrocchiale di Saint-Vincent, dedicated to San Vincenzo, is a historically important church in the Aosta Valley region. It stands on the foundations of a Roman building dating from the IV-V centuries, possibly a patrician villa or a public building with a calidarium1. The church itself was built in the XI century by the Benedictines and has undergone several renovations since then. Below the church is an archaeological site that reveals a rich history, including a mansio - a Roman building that served as an inn for travelers - complete with balnea, or bathing facilities. This site was known and visited long before the Romans arrived, with evidence of habitation dating back to the Late Bronze Age.

The parish church of Saint-Vincent is strategically positioned in the center of a sunny plateau at the foot of Mount Zerbion which acts as a natural shelter against the strong and icy winds coming from the north.

Built by the Benedictines in the 11th century, in Romanesque style, the church stands on the structures of a Roman building, dating back to 300-400 AD, which also has thermal functions with a double heating system with blown air under the floor, which provided heat the 'calidarium'. The archaeological site can be visited, but it is necessary to contact the Parish in advance (tel. 0166 512867).
