| POI BRIEF DESCRIPTION | |
| Description of the POI | The building is situated on a small hill that dominates the Corno valley. The little church of San Giorgio still retains its original appearance, as it was at the end of the fifteenth century, despite the remodeling work done during a later period. Consacrate in 1505, it has a rectangular main hall with exposed beams and a polygonal presbytery with a tracery vault with architectural elements; in front of the facade, there is a porch supported by stone pillars. Above the facade there is a seventeenth-century double lancet bell window. The sacristy was added at a later date, presumably during the 17th century. The stone entrance portal is the work of Giovanni Antonio Pilacorte and is dated 1515: on it, there are carvings of Saint George and the Dragon, the heads of cherubs and floral patterns. The latin wording recites LIMINA COSURGUNT MERIT TIBI IMMANIA GEORGI (great spaces are opened to you thanks to saint George). Inside, there are two altars dedicated to Saint George and Saint John the Baptist. Since 1700, the little church has been a place for rogations, according to stages fixed by tradition: the crosses of the various participating churches (Rodeano, Coseano, Rive) were made to touch each other in sign of peace and brotherhood, as still happens today in san Pietro in Carnia on the day of the Ascension. |
