Church of the Holy Cross

It dates from the second half of the 17th century. It has a gabled façade with a double cornice, a beautiful architraved portal flanked by half-columns supporting a tympanum pediment with a lily of late Gothic inspiration. To the left is a small tower with belfry. The interior has a hall plan concluded by a square chancel, lower and narrower than the nave. The hall is covered with a barrel vault, marked transversely by three pointed arches. In contrast, the chancel with a plain arch triumphal arch is vaulted with a barrel vault; until recently, as documented by period photos, the walls were decorated with a cycle of frescoes. The small oratory preserves statues related to the cults of Holy Week: Our Lady of Sorrows, the Holy Cross, and the ladders for the deposition; statues of St. Rita and St. Anthony of Padua are also preserved. Until 1886 the land around it was used as a cemetery. Documents preserved in the parish archives, dating from the 1700s, attest to the existence of a male and female confraternity, no longer active today.
