Interesting that the temple was turned into a catholic place of baptism. Faunt now has money in it.

a dead Christ with St. Francis and Apollonia. On each vault are newer frescos representing different saints. It is a very modest interior, well lighted. The exterior is constructed of sandstone blocks with a cloister and a quadrangular bell tower. Four columns, resting on two walls, support the porch roof. There is a single arched entry portal.

This single nave church, built in 1361, has a 14th century cross in the apse from the original church. On the altar is a painting from the 15th century depicting a dead Christ with St. Francis and Apollonia. On each vault are newer frescos representing different saints. It is a very modest interior, well lighted. The exterior is constructed of sandstone blocks with a cloister and a quadrangular bell tower. Four columns, resting on two walls, support the porch roof.

We only came inside here because we had the multi-museum pass otherwise I don't think it's worth it. There are some religious artefacts and paintings here and also a very bizarre temporary exhibition by an artist painting himself in various poses (including looking crazed and naked crouching on a bed!)
