The Church of San Pietro Apostolo is a Catholic place of worship with neo-Byzantine architecture, located at Via Costa Pavesi 47 in Costamezzana, a hamlet of Noceto, in the province and diocese of Parma. It is the seat of a parish within the pastoral area of Pedemontana. HISTORY: The church was built starting in 1909 in the new lower village of Costamezzana, to replace the now inadequate medieval chapel located inside the castle. The work was completed in 1917, but the façade was not erected until 1930, designed by architect Camillo Uccelli. The adjacent rectory was built in 1932. In 1953, the monumental staircase in front of the façade was built, designed by engineer Celeste Merini. In 1954, the two main chapels and the apse were decorated with frescoes by the Noceto painter Pietro Furlotti.

The Church of San Giovanni Battista is a Catholic place of worship with modernist architecture, located at Via Picelli 45 in Felegara, a hamlet of Medesano, in the province and diocese of Parma. It is the seat of a parish in the pastoral area of Pedemontana. HISTORY The original place of worship, dedicated to St. Iohannis, was built in the Middle Ages; the earliest evidence of its existence dates back to 1230, when the chapel was mentioned in the Capitulum seu Rotulus Decimarum of the Diocese of Parma. In 1564, the church was elevated to the status of an independent parish, but due to its poor structural condition, Bishop Giovanni Battista Castelli, during his apostolic visit in 1579, ordered its demolition and reconstruction or suppression. Construction of the new church began by 1627, and it was completed before 1714. The bell tower was erected in 1790. The bell tower was raised in 1920. In 1934, further radical renovations were undertaken on the church, designed by architect Moderanno Chiavelli. He expanded the building, adding two aisles to the 16th-century central nave and transforming the two 17th-century side chapels into the two branches of the transept, and gave it a new façade. This modernist place of worship was completed in 1938. In 1959, the interior was decorated according to a design by architect Marco Pellegri, with the arches, pillars, and apse covered in terracotta tiles by sculptor Mario Orlandini, who also created some panels, as well as the high altar and the marble pulpit. Between 2014 and 2016, the church underwent restoration work designed by architects Alberto Bordi, Sauro Rossi, and Marco Zarotti. The restoration work included the façades, roofs, and interiors, as well as the redevelopment of the presbytery and the resurfacing of the paving and churchyard.

Vogoleno Castle is very beautiful

The sanctuary is undergoing restoration and cannot be visited at the moment.

It's impossible to reach, but it's always a pleasure to admire. It's clearly visible from various points in our Apennines.
