Church of St James

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:13:03

This Gothic creation, built in 1407, contains very faded 15th-century frescoes on the east wall of a giant St Christopher carrying the Christ Child, Mary Misericordia sheltering supplicants under a massive cloak, and the three magi bearing their gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. The altars and oaken pews are masterpieces of baroque woodcarving, and Miklós Jurisics and two of his children are buried in the crypt.
