What details define St. Anthony’s Church?
The single-nave church brings together architectural forms and features from different periods. Its tower has a square ground plan that transitions into an octagonal section, topped by a Baroque spire. The two-bay chancel has a ribbed vault. “Two-bay” here refers to its division into two bays, or sections. The ribs give the vault another distinctive architectural feature.
The furnishings also offer specific details for exploring the building’s history: these include a Gothic baptismal font dating from 1490, a Baroque altar, a pulpit and several sculptures. Outside, there are four Renaissance epitaphs. Gothic, Baroque and Renaissance elements can therefore be distinguished in different parts of the church, rather than reducing its history to a single period.
How do the park and cycling map add to your plans?

The church dates back to the 15th century and was remodelled in the 18th century; the park is from the second half of the 19th century, specifically 1860 to 1870.
