The small church of Santa Maria di Piazza is distinguished by its Neo-Classical facade and was designed by Vittone in the mid-18th c. The church is built in the shape of a Greek cross, created from the integration of the original building with two side chapels. The original structure had an elliptical plan crowned by a dome. The first altar is decorated by a painting of the "Baptism of Christ" by Michele Antonio Milocco. The second altar has a work by Felice Cervetti entitled "Souls in Purgatory;" and the high altar has "Assumption of the Virgin" by Pietro Francesco Guala.
