The parish church of Sant Martí dates from the late Romanesque period (13th century) although it was probably renovated later. It houses a single nave with a semicircular apse, an entry with four descending Roman archways, a lintel and a tympanum. The nave has a continuous pointed vault with the chancel having an almond shape with a pointed triumphal arch. The vestry, mezzanine over the nave and the belfry were later additions.
