G li s T or re us, that h to nn or then v the du to t or fo rti to n to technologies between the decoration of the ancient church know Vaprio and that of b to silica and S. Michele in Pavia and S. Sigismund in Rivolta d 'Adda , or are with c ordered n and the rit black and re know lent and the early twelfth s the eco the s ua building, even if it is difficult to pinpoint the year that was laid the first stone. Certainly the church dedicated to St. Columba - located south of the town, right next to the entrance of the hospital - is an important historical document of the early medieval period . A monument that despite and the alterations occurred in the centuries and the restoration is not always happy, it is claimed in full as a valuable testimony to z of ' Romanesque art in Lombardy. Built with square blocks of sandstone, the church of S . Columba is a building plan to rectangular with a semicircular apse and two chapels on the side facing the river . on the simple and gabled facade stands out in the port the and enriched with columns and pilasters , while the apse, opened in d oculi with diaphragms and small hole carved stone and f or rt and splay, is softened to d a to frame of blind arches , r and tt a d to slender columns .

Le decorazioni dell'esterno
S ullo stipite di sinistra d e the central portal, above the figure of ' arc to ng and Michael to the wings and protects a devout , is recognized as a siren from d or ppi to tail, the symbol of lust and the decorative bands of the capitals show inv and there by some human figures and anim to them, by ' other plant motifs. A more and between next to llo jamb di sinistra r e ca invece l ' imma g ine di un giglio in rilievo, probabile ' firm a' dell ' anonimo scalpellino che realizzò l e decora z ioni (10 st es so motivo si ritrova anche all'int e rno , scolpito su una pietra della cappella di destra). Interessant e notar e il b l Occo stone to ccanto to stipitate and right, on which a mixture of three geometric lines can ess king and interpreted as a symbolic image of the divine Trinity . The ste s know why a plot, derived from ' art c eltic to and rev and know from to Irish culture ( in this regard, remember that S . Columba came from its ' Ireland) appears above the door on the north side to the .
