The church of S. Giustina, founded in 1170 and rebuilt in 1227, was initially connected to the Da Camino family. Inside, there is the funerary monument of Rizzardo VI Da Camino, the last representative of the family. The sculptural work consists of a sarcophagus supported by four soldiers, while at the corners are four figures in prayer: two bishops, Rizzardo's consort Verde Della Scala, and his daughter. The interior has a single nave; on the main altar, one can admire the altarpiece of S. Giustina in glory between S. Augustine and S. Monica by Giovanni Contarini (circa 1549-1604), a disciple of Titian. Also of interest is the funerary monument of the poet from Serravalle, Guido Casoni (1561-1642), and the 18th-century frescoes on the ceiling.
