Chiesa San Rocco e San Sebastiano, Grono
The church of San Rocco and San Sebastiano, decorated with colourful frescoes, is located in a small square in the centre of Grono.
The church, originally dedicated to Saint Bernardine, was a modest chapel probably built at the beginning of the 16th century. In 1660 it was restored and enlarged and dedicated to Saint Bernardine of Siena and Saint Charles Borromeo. Later, in 1690, the sacristy was added and at the beginning of the 19th century the bell tower was built. The nave is characterised by a barrel vault, while the chancel has a cross vault decorated with beautiful baroque stuccoes dating from 1715. The main façade of the church is characterized by colorful frescoes depicting Our Lady of Milk and the patron saints of the church.
