This church is the most
important Romanesque site in the island. The construction is entirely in
local stone (black basalt and white limestone), with a typical
appearance of Tuscan Romanesque style. The
church was finished in 1116 over the ruins of a pre-existing
monastery.The church was abandoned in the 16th century, until it was
restored and reopened in the early 20th century.
