On the slopes of Mount La Nave, at an altitude of about 800 meters above sea level, the church of San Paolo is located on a panoramic plateau overlooking Lake Lugano and is made of stone. It has a suggestive portico and dates back to the 12th century.

the church of San Paolo sopra Marchirolo, built at the beginning of the 20th century, offers a marvelous view of lake lugano up to Porlezza and the whole Val Ganna; to the east stands the shape of Monte Generoso from which you can see the famous restaurant on the summit
