Corchiano. Church of Sant'Egidio

The church of Sant'Egidio was remodeled in the sixteenth century in Corchiano.

It has a more ancient origin that is deduced from the oculus (cirular opening) in the façade and the six windows with round arches on the sides.

The building has a single nave that ends with an apse above which rises a belfry.

The apse and the presbytery are decorated with frescoes attributed to Bartolomeo Torresani.
