Description

This parish church of Saint Peter, a simple chapel in its origins, received permission to have a baptismal font in 1446. In the nave, one can see several works of the 17th century: the polychrome tile panels, depicting the life of Saint Peter; the side altars of the Calvary and of Our Lady of the Rosary; the paintings of the Ecce Homo and of the Washing of the Feet; and the central painting of the ceiling showing the Denial of Peter. The chancel has four canvases with episodes of Saint Peter’s life and also a gilt and carved wood retable with the tabernacle and the Baroque statues of Saint John the Evangelist and Saint Peter.
