It’s a Neo-Romanesque beauty built in 1857, replacing its predecessor which was first documented way back in 1377. This church is the soul of the village. Every villager has a story about it, a memory of a baptism, a wedding, or a somber funeral. The church isn’t just a building; it’s a living archive of the village’s history. They say if you listen really closely, you can hear whispers of the past in the wind chimes that hang from the eaves.
