History
This hall is the only remaining vestige of the former abbey of the Cistercian order. It is a rectangular hall vaulted with two columns as central point of support. Outside, the ogival entrance door with very low arcading is accompanied, to the left and to the right, by twin openings inscribed in arcading. The hall serves as a chapel.
