Chiesa Parrocchiale di Santo Stefano

Via Santo Stefano, 1 , Monteforte D'Alpone (VR) - 37032

The parish church is dedicated to St. Stephen, was begun in 1839 and completed in 1845.

Here, there is an altar with a ciborium and a small temple in Baroque style, while on either side of the presbytery, two canvases from the 18th century are noticeable: "Visit of the Shepherds to the Child", a work dated 1690 by the Vicentine painter Bartolomeo Cittadella, and "Flight into Egypt", a work by the greatest Vicentine painter of the 18th century, Giovanni Antonio De Pieri known as lo Zoppo, datable around the years 1730-40.

Of considerable interest are the Romanesque remains of the small church that overlooks the village, of which part of the presbytery with the apse and a beautiful fresco in the triumphal arch above the presbytery, depicting the Annunciation from the 15th-16th century, are still visible, along with pictorial fragments from the late 14th century.

The ancient parish church (first half of the 15th century) is located in an elevated position above the village and features a bell tower with elegant twin windows in the bell area, topped with a spire and a pine cone made of terracotta.
