Built on the homonymous hill, the Parish Church of San Pancrazio is one of the monuments in Romanesque style among the best preserved of Lombardy.

The church, documented since the early twelfth century, has a plan longitudinal divided into three spacious naves, pierced by pillars cruciforms and columns, some of which are embellished with paleochristian capitals.

The walls, entirely made of Botticino stone, present episodes of reuse of registered or figurative stones dating back to the Roman era of the II-III century AD The historical stratifications are also felt in the pictorial decoration that presents numerous votive frescoes dating from the fourteenth to the sixteenth century, including the San Pancrazio on horseback by Girolamo Romanino 1520c. and the Sacred conversation of Callisto Square 1524c.
