Church of San Matteo

The church of San Matteo, built in the first half of the 15th century at the behest of Count Matteo Madalli of Muslone, is located in the hamlet of Muslone. Preceded by a small churchyard, it has a gabled layout, with the front characterised by a portal and a large window, crowned by a triangular tympanum with a metal cross at the top. The interior has a single hall, with side altars and chancel for the organ, originally made by Giovanni Tonoli in the 1830s. In August 1894, the organ was destroyed by lightning that struck the church; in its place, the Brescia organ house Ghidinelli Angelo, Facchetti and Bianchetti made the present organ. The presbytery, raised and quadrangular, is slightly unbalanced, recalling the popular tradition of the figure of Jesus bending his head to the right on the cross, while the vaulted ceiling is embellished with valuable frescoes.
