St. Salvaro's Church was probably built by the will of the feudal lady Matilde from Canossa at the beginning of 1100 and it included archaeological remains dating back to Roman times.
The building contains all the late Romanesque art elements of Verona: three naves, large apses, the absence of light and dark elements, projections and alcoves; thus, its walls are smooth and uniform. The outer cotto brickwork alternates thin and thick bricks with some tuff layers. The facade was renovated by the will of father Giuseppe Trecca at the beginning of the twentieth century, the bell tower dates back to 1914, whereas the apses and the underground crypt are original.
