History
Building of the 17th century composed of a nave with round arch, separated from the choir with semi-dome vault by a double arch. The floor is paved with terracotta tiles, except in places where exposed rock forms the floor. Two small round-arch windows, one in the axis of the choir, the other on the south façade, provide the lighting. This small building offers a type of mountain architecture of which it is useful to preserve examples.
