The church was first mentioned in 1325. The facade with the round arches, the huge nave and the neo-baroque bell tower are absolutely worth seeing.

Saint John the Baptist (San Giovanni Battista), to whom this church was consecrated, is - like Saint Joseph - a man on the threshold from the Old to the New Testament. His parents are Zacharias and Elisabeth, after the proclamation of the Incarnation through her, the Mother of God visits her relative Elisabeth, who will give birth to a son in old age, namely John the Baptist. He is six months older than Jesus and is considered to be his forerunner / pioneer. He lives in the desert, preaches the repentance of sins to the Jewish population and baptizes them in the Jordan, there Jesus also comes to be baptized, and he is filled with the Holy Spirit, who comes down on him from heaven.
The feast day of San Giovanni Battista in the saints calendar is on June 24th, exactly six months before 'Christmas Eve'.
