    This church in Piandicastello, completely rebuilt after the destruction of the war - the "Chiesa del SANTISSIMO SALVATORE" - was not dedicated to one of the many people whom we honor as blessed or saints and ask for their heavenly intercession with God; but dedicated to the incarnate Son of God Jesus Christ, the Redeemer and Saviour. In the Italian language, "San Salvatore" is usually not simply used, as is generally the case with saints, but there is also the linguistic increase to "Most Holy Redeemer" / "Santissimo Salvatore".

    The small church of San Salvatore in Piandicastello is located in an open space along the road that leads to the town center; next to it is the parish house. The church was erected in 1804 and completed in 1809.

    During the Second World War the church was destroyed and was completely rebuilt as it has come to us today.

    Embark on the Onferno Great Loop (CAI 011), a moderate hiking route that takes you through the diverse landscapes of the Riserva Naturale Orientata di Onferno. This trail covers 5.8 miles (9.4 km) and involves an elevation gain of 1181 feet (360 metres), typically taking around 2 hours and 56 minutes to complete.

The contrasting environments make for an interesting and ever-changing hiking experience, setting this trail apart in the region. You will observe how the landscape shifts from one section to another, reflecting the underlying geology.
