    Oratory built by the Confraternity of Santa Marta in 1727-28 a short distance from the Parish and near the ancient cemetery, on a flat spot called "alla croce dei disciplinati" (in the Walser language zer gheisleru criz). The central body, with a circular plan with four windows and two doors, was surrounded by a portico of monolithic columns of pink granite and covered by a dome supported by corbels, a cornice, pilaster strips and capitals sculpted in bas-relief. The oratory had a sacristy. The sacred representations of Good Friday probably took place here during which one of the members of the Confraternity was "crucified". destroyed by the disastrous flood of 1868.
