According to tradition, the church dedicated to St. Matthew the Apostle was built in the 15th century at the request of the new feudal lord Maffeo (or Matteo) Medalli. The building, with a single nave and side altars, houses inside some paintings by the quite famous Garda painter Andrea Bertanza from the first half of the 17th century, including one of his most important works on the main altar (, Madonna with Child and Gloriole and Saints Matthew, Herculan and Zeno*) signed by him. Also of unique value is the tabernacle in gilded wood, a work of the Pialorsi (also called Boscai) from the Sabbia valley. On the image of a side altar with Saints Rocco and Anthony venerating the Eucharist, there is a stylised one at the bottom. Representation of the church and fort of Muslone. The church tower, built at the same time, is accessible from the nave and has five bells, two of which are still of original origin. To the side of the church, as if suspended above the lake, is the remarkable former rectory. (The parish is now incorporated into that of Gargnano). The house has only recently been sold and restored by private hands.

Die dem Apostel Matthäus geweihte Kirche wurde nach der Überlieferung im 15. Jhdt. auf Wunsch des neuen Feudalherrn Maffeo (oder Matteo) Medalli errichtet. Das Gebäude, einschiffig und mit Seitenaltären, beherbergt im Inneren einige Gemälde des recht bekannten Gardesaner Malers Andrea Bertanza aus der ersten Hälfte des 17. Jhdts., darunter eines seiner bedeutendsten Werke auf dem Hauptaltar (, Madonna mit Kind und Gloriole und den Heiligen Matthäus, Herkulan und Zeno*) das von ihm signiert ist. Von einzigartigem Wert ist auch der Tabernakel in vergoldetem Holz ein Werk der Pialorsi (auch genannt Boscai) aus dem Sabbia-Tal. Auf dem Bild eines Seitenaltars mit den Heiligen Rocco und Antonius, die die Eucharistie verehren, findet man am unteren Rand eine stilisierte. Darstellung der Kirche und des Kastells von Muslone. Der zur gleichen Zeit erbaute Kirchturm ist vom Kirchenschiff aus zugänglich und besitzt fünf Glocken, darunter noch zwei originalen Ursprungs. Seitlich der Kirche, wie über dem See schwebend, befindet sich das bemerkenswerte ehemalige Pfarrhaus. (Die Pfarrei ist jetzt eingegliedert in die von Gargnano). Das Haus ist erst kürzlich verkauft und von privater Hand restauriert worden.

Dear @travelflower, we need your help!

The Hivebuzz proposal already got important support from the community. However, it lost its funding a few days ago and only needs a few more HP to get funded again.

May we ask you to support it so our team can continue its work this year?
You can do it on Peakd, ecency, Hive.blog or using HiveSigner.

Your support would be really helpful and you could make a difference.
Thank you!
