The parish church of Bale (Valle d'Istria), dedicated to the Visitation of Mary to Saint Elizabeth, is a 19th-century white stone building, completed and dedicated in 1882, built on the ruins of older churches, including a 9th-century basilica. It is located in the center of the village and preserves remains of the earlier buildings in a crypt converted into a lapidarium.
