Santa Maria | The entrance is through a square porch covered by a rib vault with a single window in the west wall. The entrance arch on the exterior of the porch is decorated with relief panels of the four Evangelists, perhaps re-used from a pulpit. The left aisle culminates in a west tower, and is decorated with a corbel table at the top, and there are double-arched windows with twin columns decorated by capitals the four sides of the tower. The second tower on the south side was never completed. The external walls of the aisles are undecorated, and pierced by simple windows and a door on the southern flank. The 13th century apse is ornamented with blind arches and has a large absidial window flanked by columns. Construction materials are stone and brick. The ground plan consists of three naves divided by square pillars which support five arches and barrel vaults in the south aisle, with groin vaults in the north. Triumphal arch leads to the non-protruding transept and then a deep choir with a single apse. | 3 |
