About

The village, with its irregular network of alleys, is situated on a hill on which a three-nave Romanesque basilica with a west tower was built, dedicated to St. Martin in the 13th century. The entrance to the church hall is through a plain west portal with semicircular archivolt and round-arched piers. The nave is spanned by a cross-ribbed vault supported by transoms and pilasters. Around 1500, a sacristy was built to the south of the chancel. In the 18th century, the aisles were raised and the brick galleries were installed.
