Built in 1290 by the Camaldolese Benedictine monks of the Abbey of S. Maria di Sitria, the Church of San Michele was rebuilt between 1442 and 1480. The date of the church’s foundation is engraved on the brick of the keystone of the side portal.
...The stone lower part has Romanesque elements, while the brick upper part is the result of rebuilds in Gothic style. On the front of the main entrance there is a wooden portal with stone decorations with geometric motifs, characterized by two carved hands at the base of the pillars that support the portal. The interior, decorated with frescoes and a canvas of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, is characterized by the original layout with a single nave with the presbytery raised by a few steps. This nave is marked by sandstone tabernacles, broken arches of the ceiling and powerful cross-pointed arches, introduced with the fifteenth century renovation.
