Parish Church of St. Valentine

Formerly was the late Gothic building a sanctuary. The ship was built in the 15th century. The onion-shaped roof of the church tower appears atypical of the Gothic building. The explanation for this is a fire in 1777 that destroyed the ancient tower as a result of a lightning strike. A new tower was pulled up in the late Baroque style by this unfortunate event. It was also parallel Baroque interior of the church.
