The Church of Sant'Andrea, in modern style, was built in 1870 on the foundations of the previous one, when Don Antonio Trettene was the chaplain. It is dedicated to the Apostle St. Andrew and the Blessed Virgin.
On the facade of the Church, there are two niches with tuff statues of St. Andrew and St. Barnabas. The interior features a nave with ribbed vaults and sails. There are five altars, the main one made of colored marbles (likely from a deconsecrated church in Verona). The paintings in the apse, depicting the four evangelists, are the work of Moreno Zoppi, while the Eternal Father in the basin is by Resi. The pulpit is decorated with Baroque sculptures.
The right-side lateral altars contain paintings representing St. Andrew and St. Barnabas, and the passing of St. Joseph, respectively by the artists Donati and Miolato. The left-side altars instead contain the statues of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Our Lady of Sorrows; the latter is carried in procession every year on September 15th.
