The church of Lostallo, consecrated in 1611, knows how to capture the attention of those who look thanks to the enchanting frescoes that adorn its walls.
Description
The church, dependent on the parish church of Lostallo, was consecrated in 1611. The last restoration dates back to between 1962-1963 and 1977. It is a sober longitudinal construction with a square choir. On the north side of the building stands a majestic bell tower covered by a stone roof. The church has beautiful exterior frescoes from 1611: on the south side the Madonna between Saints Nicholas and Mary Magdalene; on the façade, San Cristoforo within a tympanum frame that suggests the ancient presence of a portico. The illusionistic decorations around the portal date back to the eighteenth century. The three stucco altars date back to 1767. During the last restorations the frescoes were brought to light of the very interesting landscape views along the cornice of the choir.
