Saint Anthony Abbot Church

The original construction dates back to around 1200; the building was enlarged in the 17th century, and the current structure dates to 1907. This structure incorporates the square-plan apse of the older church, which had a fully frescoed cross vault with the floor at a lower level than the current one. Of the original frescoes, a Theory of Apostles and Saints inserted within round arches are still vicible, in the lunette on the left wall, there is a Nativity scene and the Adoration of the Magi; on the right wall, the Madonna with Child enthroned, flanked by four saints. The decorations present in the arch of the apse include a Bishop holding a model of the church and a Young Martyr Saint. Below, barely visible, are two female figures. The frescoes, dating from the second half of the 15th century, are attributed to an itinerant painter of Carinthian-Slovenian origin, linked to late Gothic styles, possibly the same artist who created the fresco cycle of Santo Stefano in Clama in Artegna.
The church also preserves one of the most interesting wooden altars in Friuli, created in 1701 by Bartolomeo Ortari from Caporetto, an artist from a school that worked extensively in the Natisone valleys. In the niches of the carved and gilded structure, composed of two levels, are the statues of the Saints; below, Saint Anthony Abbot flanked by four other Saints; above, the Coronation of the Virgin, Saint Nicholas, and Saint Mary Magdalene.
