Church

The first church in the village of Perzacco, dedicated to St. Rocco, was built in the 16th century as a chapel subject to the Parish of Zevio.

The current parish church of Perzacco, dedicated to St. Bartholomew the Apostle, was built anew between 1772 and 1779. The old church, likely located between Corso street and the Minella ditch, was demolished.

The church features a rectangular single-nave layout, along the sides of which there are four emerging semi-side chapels of reduced depth, two on each side facing each other, of which those nearest to the presbytery house the altar of St. Bartholomew the Apostle, on the northern side, and the altar of Our Lady of the Rosary, on the opposite side.

The main entrance, with an internal wooden vestibule, opens at the center of the façade wall in a Baroque style. Beyond the portal, a rectangular window illuminates the interior of the building. On the sides, two niches house the statues of Saints Bartholomew and Peter.

The nave and the presbytery are covered with barrel vaults with lateral ribs, framed by slightly projecting transverse ribs, decorated with painted tempera frames and stucco reliefs.

The internal space of the church, characterized by a harmonious and balanced overall architectural and decorative composition, features façades rhythmically marked by composite order pilasters, with arches leading to the side chapels, while the lunette of the back wall of the presbytery is decorated with a painting depicting Adoring Angels, created by the painter Giuseppe Resi (1943).
