Enrico Ripamonti (10/07/2019)
A small oratory perhaps built in the 1600s. Interesting is the dedication to John, the Baptist, because this saint lived as an hermit, and this made him the patron saint of the mountaineers who spent their summers far from the inhabited centers, on the mountains. And on June 24 (the feast of Saint John), by tradition, the herds left the valley floor to climb to the mountain pastures.
