The remarkable Church of St. Mary is the remains of a large, four-winged Carmelite monastery dating from 1470. The church is known for its 16th-century frescoes depicting the story of Mary's parents.
The Madonna panel is a Dutch work from around 1520.

From the outside, the church looks like a somewhat oversized village church. From the inside, the building, originally built as a monastery church in the 15th century, is a heavenly Jerusalem for the viewer. Passing through the high entrance hall, one finds oneself in the long nave, where light floods through the large, clear windows and, reflecting off the white walls, illuminates the wonderful, frescoed vault. Many scenes primarily depict the life of Mary, but there is also a wall depicting the story of Paradise and a wonderful, modern-looking devil. Many beautiful furnishings adorn the space: a magnificent, carved altar depicting the Assumption of Mary, a somewhat fragmentary Gothic choir stall, a beautiful, carved pulpit, numerous panel paintings, and a set of pews with entrance doors in each row. The bright side chapel is adorned with a vault painted with jungle-like tendrils.
