Church in Pizzolano, Fisciano, documented from 1309, rebuilt in the 15th century and decorated in the 16th and 17th.

In the hamlet of Pizzolano, the Church of San Lorenzo Martire stands on a site already mentioned in the 9th century, while the building appears in documents in 1309. The 14th-century structure was rebuilt in the 15th century and enriched with new decoration during the 16th and 17th centuries.We suggest looking up at the side arches and the apse wall, adorned with groups of cherubs added in the 17th century. We like this interweaving of different eras, which tells the long history of the hamlets of the Irno valley, at the foot of the Fisciano hills.
