The Chiesuolo della Madonna di Loreto was built in three successive phases:
The rural aedicule from the 15th century with an image of the Virgin of Loreto.
The ancient oratory in brick from the 17th century, also dedicated to the Madonna di Loreto.
The current church, dating from 1781.
Architecture: The church has a single nave with a protiro (covered entrance) and is built of exposed brickwork. Inside there are frescoes and an altarpiece with the Madonna di Loreto.
Significance: The Chiesuolo is also called ‘Il Chiesuolo’ and is dedicated to the Madonna of Loreto. It is an important historical testimony and a place of devotion. lombardiabeniculturali.it/architetture/schede/PV240-01108
