The Abbey of Valvisciolo was built around the year 1100. It is the oldest church in Cistercian Gothic style built in local limestone. The Cistercian architectural style follows the admonition of the "Memento mori" The cloister is particularly fascinating. Each of the capitals of the two-row columns that outline the courtyard is decorated differently. There are acanthus leaves and animals typical of the medieval bestiary
