San Vito is too small to be considered a suburb, but it is nevertheless interesting and unusual.
There are two habitation centres: lower San Vito, which is a sort of mini village arranged around the fountain, and upper San Vito, dominated by the 1400s church dedicated to Saint Vitus and a 1700s farmhouse. These two hamlets are very small but nevertheless have some very interesting buildings for their history and rural, stately, and eclectic architecture. The excellent view from upper San Vito suggests that there might have been some sort of ancient structure that was subsequently transformed into the little church. The dimensions of the bell-tower and its detached position, well integrated into the landscape, further support this thesis, but there are no historical sources to back this up, and so it has to be considered no more than a logical possibility. There are interesting traces of a tower a little higher up. The lower historical buildings have been joined by some newer constructions but without changing the style of the settlement. It overlooks the road where it forks, one side going towards Mechel through Salvàno and on the other up into the mountains. Lower San Vito is cradled on a very steep slope with a narrow stream valley cutting through it, which would certainly have been an important resource. Charming and authentic, this settlement still maintains its identity intact, while upper San Vito is a natural and architectural delight.
