Beschreibung
The church was first mentioned in 1354. The walls of the nave and the lower part of the tower probably date from its early days. In 1471 it was enlarged and two additional side altars were added; in 1506 it was renovated again and the choir was added. In 1552, after serious religious disputes in the village and despite resistance from the powerful Salis family, the church congregation joined the Reformation. The altar from 1499, the work of Ivo Strigel from Memmingen, was sold to the church of Santa Croce in Piuro.
The church received its present appearance during the renovation of 1735 (inscription above the portal), through the new vaulted ceiling and the extension of the church tower to its present height. The last renovation in 1985 was intended to restore the original exterior as faithfully as possible, e.g. the wall panelling, the pews on the left, the choir and also the shape and colour of the pulpit. The chandelier is made of Murano crystal.
In contrast to other Bergell churches, the old gravestones on the inner walls have been left in place, including those of the Salis, Gugelberg von Moos, Planta and Pestalozzi families.
