Mother Church |

The Mother Church is dedicated to St. George; actually there is a bas-relief representing St. George and the dragon and the Saints Paul and Peter in the tympanum. The projecting central bay has two couples of columns ornamented with volutes at each story. Lights are characterized for the use of both classic, segmental or open pediments.
