Chiesa Parrocchiale di Santa Giustina

Parish church of Limana

It is not known when the church of Santa Giustina di Limana was founded; however, it is documented since 1184.

At the end of the 19th century, the ancient parish church located outside the inhabited center proved insufficient to meet the needs of the faithful, and thus it was decided to build a larger and more convenient church in the village.

Completed in 1905, the church was consecrated on October 7, 1910, by the bishop of Belluno and Feltre, Giuseppe Foschiani. The dedication to Santa Giustina was transferred to the new parish church, while the ancient parish was renamed Santa Barbara. In 1960, the spire of the bell tower was completed.

The most valuable work preserved here is a statue depicting San Valentino, which contains some relics of the saint, donated to the parish by Pope Gregory XVI.

The presbytery features a cycle of frescoes by the painter Pietro Cortelezzi.
