A parish page for this church was still under construction in April 2022.

The Italian Wikipedia article about this village is little more than a stub, and does not mention any church.

A page about the architectural history of the church has one photo that verifies the existence of a tower, and a paragraph describing it (but not the bells).  A larger version of the same photo is here.

Where this work lies in the sequence of output of the Allanconi bellfoundry, in this region and in the world.
