ANCIENT PATISH CHURCH OF VERDETO

The Ancient “Pieve of Verdeto” is a church dating back to the Romanesque-Gothic era located near Agazzano (PC).
The first news of its archpriesthood dates back to 1123, but its foundation is much older, certainly prior to the year 1000.
In 1123 Bishop Arduino had donated it to the Cathedral of Piacenza. Subsequently, on 15 July 1132, an act of Pope Innocent II listed eight parishes among the assets of the Cathedral and among these the Parish Church of Verdeto with all its chapels, exempting it, however, from the payment of tithes because the revenues of the Parish of Verdeto were very modest from then on.
