Andagna's village hosts an immense treasure and numerous churches that testify how religious life has characterized the village's history. Of historical importance is the 17th century Parish Church dedicated to the Nativity of the Virgin Mary with some paintings by various authors, the little St. Bernard's Church which preserves, in addition to the original portico, frescoes from 1436 by unknown painters, and the St. Martin's Churchbuilt in the 19th century. The Andagna village also has other country churches, such as the one of St. Rocco's, situated at the entrance of the village, and St. Bridget's Churchlocated above the village, just below Drego. The function of the country churches went beyond being simple places of prayer, as their arcades offered shelter to travelers, shepherds, muleteers and anyone who was taken by bad weather along the way. On rainy days or during wars or plagues, the little churches acted as a guardhouse for the local militias, watching over the access roads to the village.
