The Church of Quang, dedicated to the Immaculate was inaugurated in 1947. As a plaque at the entrance explains: Our Lady was recognised as Mother and Protector of the enormous scourge of the war that had just passed.
In 1998, the small pronaos was enlarged into a larger portico, facing the entire facade.
Inside, behind the altar, there is a reproduction of the grotto of Lourdes; on its sides, two small niches hold the statue of Giovanni Bosco (on the left) and the Madonna of Caravaggio (on the right).
The back wall was painted in 2005 with a glorious image of the Virgin that opens out onto a cutaway view of a landscape depicting the village of Garzeno on the left and a group of Garzeno farmers on the right. On the left side wall there is a statue of St Agnese and a painting depicting St Joseph, the protector of the dying. On the right, beyond the side entrance door there is a 19th century painting of the delivery of the keys to St Peter, which was previously located on the high altar of the parish church.
