The parish church of San Michele Arcangelo di Gaino was built between the 17th and 18th centuries thanks to the contribution of the Delai, local nobles who owned paper mills and forges. The new church was built on the hill in front of the ancient church of San Michele, dating back to the 15th century, of which the characteristic bell tower is still visible. The ancient building probably stood on the remains of an older fortress, of which no trace remains. At the end of the sixteenth century the ancient church had three altars: the main one dedicated to San Michele, the one dedicated to San Rocco and the Holy Trinity, of which fragments of frescoes from the beginning of the fifteenth century still survive today. The church of Gaino was erected as a parish in 1662 and obtained complete autonomy compared to the mother church of Toscolano in 1707.
