Saint Pantaleon Church

The current church dates back to the 12th century, when it was built under the dedication of Saint Himere, the parish's first patron. After the plague epidemic that struck the region between 1337 and 1348, Saint Pantaleon gradually became the church's new patron saint.

Originally located within a fortified cemetery, Saint Pantaleon Church retained its medieval appearance until the late 18th century. Its choir, flanked by two lateral chapels with apses, overlooked a crypt. A 36-meter-high tower rose above the transept crossing. In 1835, the building was deemed too small, and its older parts – choir, apsidioles, side aisles, and crypt – were demolished to make way for a new construction.

By 1850, cracks appeared in this new building, threatening its stability. A second reconstruction took place between 1874 and 1878, preserving only the Romanesque bell tower and the north transept arm. A larger nave was added to the south. At the rear of the church, some arches of the Saint Michael chapel, a former ossuary, still remain today.
