Church of Bagn

The church of Bagn dates from 1736. It has undergone several major renovations and improvements. In 1897, the walls were covered with exterior panels and the old windows were replaced by new, larger ones. Inside, parts of the interior were renovated and painted in new colours. Also, in 1901, the church seems to have undergone a major repair. On the occasion of the anniversary in 1936, they wanted to restore the church to more original design. The large windows from 1897 were replaced with windows similar to those that existed before. The last part of the restoration took place in 1963-65 when the church received a new exterior panel and was painted dark brown. The church has several 18th and 18th-century paintings.
