Casa Asquini con parco e chiesetta dei Ss. Antonio e Nicolò

At the edge of a piazzetta, Casa Asquini presents a composed, almost formal frontage. Its regular run of windows, unified during a 17th-century enlargement, suggests a house that has grown with deliberate intention. A later, 19th-century addition steps back behind it, its central bay given a slight, false projection, marked out by pilasters and a moulded cornice. The garden-facing side is more relaxed, with a double loggia of low arches. The little church of Ss. Antonio e Nicolò is a different matter: a simple rectangular hall with an open timber roof, its stone ashlar façade built in neat courses. A pointed arch doorway, its jambs carved with mouldings and dentils, sits in a projecting central bay. The bell-tower’s double window collapsed in 1665 and was rebuilt the following year; the restoration also replaced the presbytery vault and added a door and windows, an event recorded by an inscription still visible on the façade.
