Going up the Croesio valley, along the border with Sanfront, you will find the Chapel of the Madonna d'Oriente. The church, already mentioned in documents from 1386, looks like a late-eighteenth-century style building dedicated to the Annunciation.

The sanctuary is located upstream of the Bollano hamlet, in the valley of the Croesio stream [1], near the border with the municipality of Paesana. Its origin is undoubtedly ancient and the church is already mentioned in a document of 1245 according to which, with other assets, it was donated by Bishop Gandolfo of Turin to the Provost of Oulx.
