Ruins of an early Christian basilica dating back to the 4th or 5th century AD. Around the year 1000, it became the home of the Knights Templar, who guarded it until the order was dissolved, with the construction of a monastery adjacent to the church.
A large burial area was discovered near the church, giving an idea of how densely populated the nearby castrum was.
