Church of Saints Roch and Sebastian (War Memorial Chapel)

Itinerari nel Rojale

The current building is the result of several restoration works carried out over time. The original structure is very ancient: it was consecrated in 1307 and built on the remains of an earlier small church. 

At the end of the 19th century, when population growth led to the construction of the larger parish church dedicated to Saints Hilary and Tatian, this smaller church became the cemetery chapel. In 1924 it was transformed into a War Memorial Chapel dedicated to the fallen soldiers. 

The façade, characterized by a lintelled entrance portal topped by a lunette with a round arch, is preceded by a portico with three arches. 

The detached tower bell tower stands in front of the chapel and dates back to the late 13th century. It features exposed stone masonry with horizontal string courses and a belfry with two tiers of biforate windows.
