THE CHURCH OF SAN VENERIO
This church is located in Migliarina and is dedicated to San Venerio, a monk who lived life as a hermit and who died on the Island of Tino towards the start of the 7th century. The sacred building dates back to the roman times, and was probably built in 1084 by the Lords of Vezzano, over the remains of a late roman, paleochristian building.
The crescent-arched doorway is set into a glorious façade, mounted with a gothic twin-lancet window, pointed arches and a leafed capital. It is probable that the bell tower was originally separate building, and was only later incorporated into the main body of the church. It is adorned with little rectangular ashlars and the highest part is decorated with angular pilasters and hanging fired brick arches.
The interior features a single aisle and is simple and austere, which is typical of most roman churches.
