Visit to the Church of St. Bartholomew of Castelàz

SHORT Description

Of very ancient foundation, it probably arose as the castle church of a medieval fortress that guarded access to the Bormio area, of which today only part of a boundary wall remains.
Considered one of the most beautiful churches in Upper Valtellina for its scenic, secluded location and artistic value, it contains pictorial cycles inside that span a period from the 14th to the 16th century.
Outside, we find the 18th-century ossuary (one of the few examples that have come down to us) and the bell tower detached from the church and set on a rocky spur.

ACTIVITIES:  Guided tours led by the volunteers of Pro Loco Valdisotto, to take you on a journey of discovery through places of worship and historical treasures that tell the story of the soul of our area.
