Located in the municipality of Serramazzoni, in the hamlet of Rocca Santa Maria, the Parish Church of Santa Maria Assunta is one of the most beautiful and ancient churches in the Modenese Apennines. Built between the 8th and 9th centuries, it was donated in 1108 to the Bishop of Modena by Matilda of Canossa.

Description
Perched on a rocky cliff in the Modenese Apennines, the medieval village of Pompeano enchants visitors with its ancient castle, historic remains, and a harmonious landscape of woods, cultivated fields, and the Rio Cervaro stream. Once in decline, the village has undergone major restoration since the 1990s, which has brought its architectural and historical value back to life. The church, tower, walls, and houses have all been carefully restored. Today, Pompeano retains its peaceful rural charm, offering breathtaking views over the valley and an atmosphere of timeless beauty.
