    Not far from the town of Piagno, in the municipality of Cosio Valtellino, there is the abbey of S. Pietro in Vallate, dedicated to Saints Peter, Paul and Maiolo. Abbey of the eleventh century and one of the few examples of Romanesque in Valtellina.
    In a picturesque position, among chestnut and locust trees, in the village of Piagno are the remains of the Cluniac Priory, where you can see the low bell tower, of typical Valtellinese structure, the semicircular apse divided into four sectors and the part of the southern wall of the church, the only remaining parts of the ancient complex. In fact, the Priory, dating back to the 11th century, became a dependency of Piona and then underwent a slow decline that accompanied it until its complete suppression in the Napoleonic era.
