Church of Saint Cristofer - Immersed in the heart of the Rignano countryside, the Church of San Cristoforo in Perticaia is a jewel to be admired in its beauty and an unexpected place full of history, as described on the sign placed right outside the church which reads: Documented since the first half of the 11th century, it was richly decorated in the 15th century as demonstrated by some traces of frescoes, but its current elegant layout, both structural and decorative, dates back to the modernization carried out in the 18th century. A refined restoration linked to the settlement of Benedictine monks, which also led to the recovery of the adjacent convent after decades of abandonment, has further enriched the building allowing the return to the church, on the wall to the right of the altar, of a triptych depicting the Virgin and Child with saints by Cenni di Francesco, a late fourteenth-century work of great coloristic and compositional elegance, typical of late Gothic culture.
