San Lorenzo, Vendrogno

Recorded in the late thirteenth century, the church became a parish in 1368 and was enlarged in Baroque style in the mid-eighteenth century. Above the portico is the confraternity hall, completed in 1730, with wooden choir stalls, a coffered ceiling and paintings of 1746 by Giuseppe Ambrosoni. Frescoes of the martyrdom of Saint Lawrence and of Saint Christopher survive on the façade. Inside are a tabernacle of 1547, a fourteenth-century San Lorenzo and carved wooden furnishings. The parish archive holds a two-volume antiphonary completed by Fazio de' Castoldi in 1387 and a copy of the Motetti C printed in Venice by Ottaviano Petrucci in 1504.
