The church of Arosio, dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel, is a building dating back to before the year 1000. In the church square you can also admire a fourteenth-century baptistery and the sundial from 1664. Near the church there is one of the few fountains in the area.

This church in Arosio was dedicated to the Archangel Michael. The name (from the Hebrew language) means "Who is like God?" He is often depicted - in paintings or as a statue - with a flaming sword, occasionally with a lance. Michael is - together with Raphael and Gabriel, and occasionally Uriel is also included - one of the three or four archangels who (according to human belief) occupy the highest rank in the heavenly hierarchy of angelic beings. Their common feast day in the calendar of saints is September 29th.
