Church above Campertogno, entitled to the Madonna del Callone, in dialect Madonna 'd sal Calùn, is a place of worship that is part of the local culture in a very profound way so much so that the entire itinerary is entitled to the Life of Mary.

The Madonna known as "del Callone" is the first destination reached on the Art Route. The name "del Callone" ("big callus") indicates the rock outcrop on which the church stands. This was built between the years 1500 and 1512 as a votive offering for escaping danger from epidemics
