*Links:

The Italian Wikipedia article about the town has a photo of a campanile with bells, but does not describe it nor associate it with a church.

A tourism page about the campanile has two photos of it, and states that "three new bells" (from Cavadini in Verona) arrived five years before the tower was built in 1839.  (They have since been replaced.)

Where the initial phase of this work lies in the sequence of output of the Cavadini bellfoundry, in this region and in the world.
Where the final phase of this work lies in the sequence of output of miscellaneous bellfoundries, in this region and in the world.
