Gravedona - S. Vincenzo and S. Maria del Tiglio

Seen from the eastern side of the Lake Como are the churches S. Vincenzo and S. Maria del Tiglio in Gravedonna. These two neighbouring buildings probably mark a place that was known as "sacred ground" already on pre-Christian times. Excavations proved, that a baptistery existed, where Maria del Tiglio is now already within the 5th or 6th century.
