Chiesa di San Giorgio Martire

The origins of the Church of San Giorgio Martire in Cazzano di Tramigna are still unknown, but it was mentioned for the first time in a document from 920, later in a will from 1004 and in a papal issuance by Pope Eugene III in 1445. However, we know that the church already existed in the 14th century, as evidenced by traces of frescoes present in a room of the current building.

The current building was constructed in the last two decades of the 19th century based on the design of architect Don Gottardi in Romanesque-Gothic style, with a single nave and four side chapels.

The façade is gabled and is divided into three fields by decorative pilasters; in the central field stands the entrance portal topped by a lunette decorated with a painting depicting "St. George slaying the dragon," a work by Aristide Bolla. Above the portal, a large bifora illuminates the interior of the building, flanked by two oculi. Along the sloping eaves, there is a decoration of hanging arches, diamonds, and sawtooth patterns.

Among the works preserved inside, one can mention the main altar from the 15th century, the octagonal baptismal font in red marble from the 15th century, a small tuff tabernacle with adoring angels and the saints George and Bartholomew, and the altarpiece by Ceffis depicting the Virgin, St. Dominic, and St. Charles Borromeo. Also noteworthy are the paintings of the Stations of the Cross, the work of the painter Giuseppe Resi.
