Church of St. Peregrine

The hamlet of San Pellegrinetto is the highest in the municipality of Fabbriche di Vergemoli, being located 953 m above sea level in which the population is divided into groups of houses positioned at high points or near water sources. Originally the group of these small groups of houses was called Alpe di Trassilico, perhaps because it was dependent on the parish of the latter village, and it assumed its present name only after the construction of the church, begun by popular will in 1680 and dedicated to San Pellegrino. The original layout of the building was in all probability Latin cross with the hall characterized by a barrel vault with lunettes and the transept by crosses. The details of the interventions the church underwent over the centuries are not known; certainly in 1734 the building was enlarged, probably with the addition of the left aisle, and in 1882 restored as evidenced by the date engraved on the lintel of the main entrance door. The church of San Pellegrinetto was elevated to the status of Parish, then made independent, only in 1947.
