Capela de Santo António

Chapel dedicated to St. Anthony, on the main façade has a portal flanked by two rectangular cracks in the stretch and horizontal gable a slender Bell Tower surmounted by a cross.
The stones of the temple carry the marks of the successive additions and interventions to which it was subject throughout the ages. The growth of the community, led to the expansion of space and the arch, which once was the main port, today lies within Chapel marking the transition between spaces. Inside this Chapel, stripped of superfluous adornments granite, stands out the headboard where, inserted into one niche with a bow, is the high altar, in gilt, which houses religious imaginary.
