Description

Its height above the altar is amazing for a building of this type. It has undergone some alterations but no major destruction. It has been described in 1599 "in very good condition, well closed and filled with all is necessary." Revised in the Counter-Reformation, it has three baroque altars. Opposite from the entrance: the altar of St. Eutrope, patron of "crippled", presents a reliquary containing a fragment of the radius of the saint. He was - say - highly effective since the register began in 1698 relates to numerous miracles, the last has been reported in 1856.
