Church of Our Lady of the Moletto (Santuario della Vergine Annunciata detto Madonna del Moletto)
The church was built in 1606 by Roberto Rusca, a monk sent here as the deputy of the abbot of Saint Ambrose in Milan, to which Limonta belonged at the time.
Church of Saint Peter Martyr (Chiesa di S. Pietro da Verona martire)
The church stands in the centre of the village, facing a small square paved with porphyry. It was first mentioned as a parish church in 1584, although 19th-century sources say it already existed in 1410.
Church of Saints Ambrose and Bernard (Chiesa dei SS. Ambrogio e Bernardo)
La chiesa attuale è il frutto della ricostruzione di un primitivo edificio, forse di fondazione altomedievale, portata a termine nel 1673 dall’Abate Giuseppe Rainoldi, come ricordato dalla lapide in controfacciata.
Church of Saints Nazarius and Celsus (Chiesa SS. Nazaro e Celso)
The original church, small and with a single nave, once stood near the lakeshore, as noted in 16th-century records.
Church of Saint Anne and Cemetery (Chiesa di Sant'Anna e cimitero)
The small church stands on the edge of the village and features a simple gabled façade with a serizzo stone portal topped by a broken pediment and flanked by two small grated windows.
Church of St. Dionigi (Chiesa di S. Dionigi)
The present church was built in the 1920s, following the demolition in 1923 of the original building, after the area on which it stood was acquired by private owners.
Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel (Chiesa della Madonna del Carmine)
Near the road leading to the Town Hall stands the small church dedicated to Our Lady of Mount Carmel. The simple façade, divided into two parts by a string course, features a gable roof.
