The new parish church was built in 1909 according to plans by Don Angelo Noacco, parish priest of Cassacco, architect and author of numerous church projects in Friuli (including the Cathedral of Santo Stefano di Buja), and consecrated in 1938. Built in the Neo-Gothic style on an imposing base, the main façade of which is divided into two flights of stairs leading from the square to the churchyard, it features a striking façade with tower-shaped tabernacles, a porch, and a central rose window. Inside, three naves are divided by archivolt columns of red Verona marble. Thanner's frescoes, removed from the rear wall of the old parish church, were relocated to an arch in the left nave and appropriately restored.

Caporiacco Castle, located in the village of the same name in the hills of Colloredo di Monte Albano, was built in the medieval period (1026-1045) as a residence-fortress for the nobles of Caporiacco. In its long history, the manor has suffered numerous damages: set on fire by enemies, looted by patriarchal troops, attacked by the population during the famous peasant revolt of Fat Thursday in 1511 and severely hit by the earthquake of the same year. But it was the 1976 earthquake that had devastating effects on the structure, leaving only the curtain wall of the facade standing. For decades it remained in a state of rubble, until the recovery work began in 1999 and concluded in 2013, with the reconstruction of the Torre Mastio, the oldest part of the site, the main body and the "casa del frate".

The Brunelde Domus Magna, which overlooks the ancient Via del Sale, is a fortified house owned by the Counts of Arcano located between the hills of Fagagna and Moruzzo. Its origins are very ancient; in the Lombard era and then throughout the Middle Ages it was a watchtower, to then be transformed into a fortified house in the 16th century, then into a hunting lodge in the 19th century. The rooms are rich in furnishings, portraits and family memories. Among these, the ancient kitchen, with the large fireplace and the mid-16th century rotisserie, the "red room" with glass and pewter from the 17th century, the "little room" that hosted Farinelli in 1731, the 14th century "caminata" with red and white checks, the study of the poet Mauro d'Arcano with 17th century wallpaper and the historical archive, the chapel of S. Nicolò with the precious stauroteca. The eastern wing has been designed to host guests who want to spend their holidays in a charming residence. It includes important medieval rooms, including the granary that served as the salla de la justitia (courthouse) for the village, the canipa with stone walls and some suggestive frescoed bedrooms. https://www.labrunelde.it/
