Regarding

There are no apparent traces of the original church. Only the portal remains as a splendid vestige of Romanesque sculpture at its best. Realized by the master of Cabestany in the second half of the XIIth century, the frieze represents six scenes of Christ such as a child, which are to be read from right to left. Inside the church, the retable of the main altar in flamboyant baroque style is consecrated to the Virgin Marie and Saint Antoine the Hermit (1755). Also not to be missed: the panel of the two Saints Jean (XVIth century), the lower part of the retable (XVth century), the panels of the Rosary (XVIIth century) and the retable of Saint Cross (1756).
