Beautiful church, it's so nice to see churches from another country, there are so many nice details to the place and the countryside around is nice as well.
Thank you, Bill! I love the murals from the 1510s. The paintings were covered in the 18th century. They were considered "crude and superstitious", but luckily they were uncovered again and conserved during renovations in 1931.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I will return your visit (if I haven't visited you already), but please be patient. I might not be able to do so until the weekend. Take care!
What an amazing building!!
