Description
Church dating from the 12th century, endowed with three naves, an apse and small apse. The central nave is covered with a semicircular cradle vault, supported by the half craders of the side naves. The pillars are in square shape, with the exception of the first two near the choir which are cylindrical and support the duplicate thanks to a particular and original configuration. The porch, located on the south side, consists of a semicircular double archivolt, decorated with motifs of broken sticks and sawt teeth, carried by four small columns with capitals decorated with leaves and claw bases.
