Chiesa di San Giorgio

The building is situated on a small hill that dominates the Corno valley. The little church of San Giorgio still retains its original appearance, as it was at the end of the fifteenth century, despite the remodeling work done during a later period. Consacrate in 1505, it has a rectangular main hall with exposed beams and a polygonal presbytery with a tracery vault with architectural elements; in front of the facade, there is a porch supported by stone pillars. Above the facade there is a seventeenth-century double lancet bell window. The sacristy was added at a later date, presumably during the 17th century.
The stone entrance portal is the work of Giovanni Antonio Pilacorte and is dated 1515: on it, there are carvings of Saint George and the Dragon, the heads of cherubs and floral patterns. The latin wording recites LIMINA COSURGUNT MERIT TIBI IMMANIA GEORGI (great spaces are opened to you thanks to saint George). Inside, there are two altars dedicated to Saint George and Saint John the Baptist. Since 1700, the little church has been a place for rogations, according to stages fixed by tradition: the crosses of the various participating churches (Rodeano, Coseano, Rive) were made to touch each other in sign of peace and brotherhood, as still happens today in san Pietro in Carnia on the day of the Ascension.

Chiesa di San Nicolò

The church, as we see it today, is the result of a massive restoration that took place at the end of the 18th century. Inside there are three altars, the first one it’s a stone altar with the statue of Saint Nicholas and Saint John Baptist made by Sebastiano Chieu from Pinzano, the other two are wooden altars and are dedicated to St. John Evangelist and the Virgin of the Rosary. Among the various decorations and furnishings we find the baptistery and the holy water stack.

Chiesa Sant'Andrea

The church has undergone two radical transformations over time. The first major renovation took place in 1736 when the bell tower was rebuilt, at the top of which a big bronze statue was placed. The second major restoration took place in 1832 by the bricklayer Gio Batta Federicis. In the 1854, Archbishop Trevisanato on a pastoral visit, decided to demolish the church. Ten years later works began and ended in 1958. Inside there is the altar of Sant’Antonio with its wooden statue and the baptistery.

Pieve di san Martino

The Parish Church of San Martino Vescono has undergone numerous renovations and extensions over time. The Plebem des Ripis is mentioned in a bull issued by the patriarch Gottifredo, according to which in 1184 the church was donated to Liuptrando, king of the Longobards. The first structures of the church probably date back to this period. The church’s appearance is is of the eighteenth century, the same period in which the bell tower was built. The church has a rectangular main hall and a polygonal apse with a ribbed vault. Inside there is an eighteenth-century main altar (1717) with statues of the Annunciation, the altar of the Rosary (1845), the work of Pietro Fantoni di Gemona, a baptismal font delated 1541, created during the rule of the priest Zaccaria, and a Holy water font of 1504 by Giovanni Antonio Pilacorte.
Particularly interesting is the altar in painted stone, created in 1530 by Carlo da Carona with statues of saints, the Annunciation and the Eternal Father.
