Description
The western facade is preceded by a visible wooden porch, which is surrounded by a brick wall to the height of the supports. The first section of the nave, accessible by a door in the western wall decorated with architectural elements of the 17th century, presents itself as a large room in narthex, which precedes the span of the bell tower, separated by a modern wooden partition. The span of the bell tower is endowed with a vault of warheads with a central oculus, the warheads based on carved lamps: to the west, two human heads, and to the east, two heads of animals. This part seems to be the first original span of the church. The central nave is flanked by two aisles and ends with a pentagonal choir.
