The church of St. John the Baptist is Romanesque. Built in the 12th century, the church consisted of a choir, side chapels and a nave covered by a large floor. The windows that light the nave are typical of the 12th century, very wide on the inside and very narrow on the outside. 16th century: Replacement of the south entrance door.
