The Italian Wikipedia article about the central town mentions Visitazione di Maria Santissima as the patron saint of the hamlet of Presina.

A page about the architectural history of the church has one photo that shows the tower, and a paragraph describing it (but not the bells).

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