Together with the Gratal and Águila sierras which give the narrow, sinuous steep streets their character, many of the houses have Pyrenean architecture, built of rough stonemasonry and covered with stone roofs and round chimneys. The parish temple, the dam, the bridge, etc. are also worth visiting.
Nestling in the hills at the foot of Mount Peiró, the village centre is typical of high-mountain architecture, with stonemasonry walls, doors with a lintel, few gaps on the façades, stone window ledges, tiles over wooden fluting and cylindrical chimneys on the rooftops.
This hermitage has been declared a National Monument and dates from the late Romanesque, the second half of the XIII century. Its principal attraction are the wall paintings. The top end of it and the triumphal arch are decorated with XIV century paintings, in lineal Gothic style, with images describing the life of San Miguel, the Resurrection of the Dead and the Last Judgement. Simple, attractive craftsmanship pictorically decorated, adorns the wooden structure of its ceiling.
Visits: Ask for the keys in the first house in the village on the right. During the summer season there are guided visits.
Situated on a hill close to the village, this is popular, austere architecture; it has a crude porch and only one nave. The austerity outside contrasts with the pictorical wealth of its inside walls that conserve a rich ensemble of XIV century lineal Gothic style or Franco-Gothic paintings. These depict the torture of San Valero, San Vicente and Santa Catalina.
