Legends never die.

The Insigne Collegiata Church was built in the 10th century by Raniero Cavalca, Count of Bertinoro and lord of the place, who had it erected on the ruins of the chapel dedicated to the Virgin martyr Saint Agatha. The original construction was of Romanesque architecture. It was subsequently expanded in 1520 under the lordship of Ottaviano Fregoso by will of the people. With subsequent expansions it lost its original characteristics to transform itself into a typical 18th century church, especially after the radical restoration of 1776 in Baroque style. ... On the left of the church stands a mighty 35-meter-high bell tower rebuilt in 1885 based on a design by the architect from Santagata Santi Botticelli. The current round bell tower with a spire takes the place of the older one with a square base in Romanesque style which collapsed in 1865 due to lack of maintenance. Under the Collegiate Church Presbytery you can visit the very ancient octagonal Crypt from the 8th century; this was created with the recycled materials of the primitive Church and was recently restored by the parish priest Don Erminio Gatti. ...
