Steeped in tradition, this church’s interior retains much of its original charm, with spacious wood floors, diagonal tongue-and-groove wainscot, and an enchanting octagonal apse on a raised platform. The rear section, possibly added in the early 20th century, boasts a striking tongue-and-groove ceiling adorned in brilliant blue paint.
