The church of San Micheletto is a church located in the homonymous street. In this area there was a monastic complex used in the fifteenth century by the Poor Clares; just the fifteenth-century cloister octagonal pillars remains.
The foundation of a church dedicated to St. Michael dates from the eighth century; there are only a frame and few pillars reused on the left side of the church that in the twelfth century replaced the previous one. It was fully restored too in the eighteenth century; it remains only the north side, in square blocks with hanging arches crown moldings.
The portal that opened on this side shows a lintel from the workshop of Biduino adorned with a vine plant and a human figure.
Given to the State in the nineteenth century and drastically altered, the complex today houses the Foundation Ragghianti.
