Main sights
- Church of San Giorgio (12th century). It contains a rare tombstone from 752 remembering the work of a Lombard bishop credited with sweeping off paganism in the area. The church has an aisle with apse (another aisle was destroyed in the 12th century), and a bell tower, also from the 12th century.
- Romanesque church of San Giovanni Battista, at Dobbiana. The façade is made of sandstone. The interior is in Baroque style.
- Medieval pieve of St. Stephen, at Sorano, known from 1148.
