Church of San Michele
Built in 1290 by the Camaldolese Benedictine monks of the Abbey of S. Maria di Sitria, the Church of San Michele was remodeled between 1442 and 1480. The date of the church’s establishment is stamped on the brick of the keystone of the side portal.
...The lower stone part has Romanesque elements, while the upper brick part is the result of Gothic-style renovations. On the facade of the main entrance there is a wooden portal with stone decorations with geometric motifs, characterised by two carved hands at the base of the pillars that support the portal. The interior, decorated with frescoes and a canvas from the 15th and 16th centuries, is characterised by its original layout with a single nave with the presbytery raised by a few steps. This nave is punctuated by sandstone tabernacles, broken ceiling arches and mighty pointed transverse arches, introduced during the fifteenth-century renovation.
