2024-06-06, ore 22.28. citata libera da diversi siti: 'chiesa isolata e quasi nascosta, ai limiti del bosco, la sua storia risale alla prima metá del XI secolo, con la preesistente Chiesa Paleocristiana, prosegue con la Chiesa Romanica, realizzata e posseduta fino alla fine del XVIII secolo, dalle Monache Benedettine del Monastero S. Vittore di Meda che si interessarono all'edificio religioso preesistente e iniziarono lavori di ristrutturazione che lo portarono alla struttura che noi vediamo oggi. L'ubicazione della chiesetta, ancora oggi isolata ed eccentrica, sarebbe spiegabile ipotizzando l'edificazione di Sant'Adriano (e della chiesa preesistente) sulla struttura di un tempio pagano. I luoghi di culto pagano erano infatti collocati in siti appartati, periferici e, come in questo caso, boscosi'. la frazione di Olgelasca si trova tra Brenna ('CO) e Cantú (CO) lungo la strada SP39, e dall'altro lato lungo il sentiero ME-MO (Meda-Montorfano). non sono riuscito a fotografare la chiesa dagli altri punti di ripresa perché la batteria era scarica subito dopo questo scatto e io non avevo con me un'altra batteria. i ragazzi locali, che erano davanti alla chiesa, mi hanno proposto i ricaricatori dei loro telefonini. é stato carino da parte loro. niente da fare. ci sono stato ancora una volta, ma non avevo piú tempo e dovevo andare velocemente alla stazione per non perdere l'ultimo treno. quindi per adesso é l'unica foto di questa bellissima chiesetta.
