Spaltenna, even if the visitor as an imposing castle, is in fact an ancient fortified church, home early as the tenth century baptistery of S. Piero in Avenano, which later assumed the title.
Even today, the presence of two towers at the corners of the walls on the opposite side of the church and the presence died some archer testify to the defensive character of the building.
Moreover, his name seems to bear witness to the ancient Etruscan settlement.
