The small Sigurata Church is an example of a single-nave church with a cupola dating between the and the 11th centuries. The side naves and present Baroque facade were added during its reconstruction in the 17th century. Archaeological remains of the two other churches were discovered in its foundations, the older dating from the 6th century. There is a Franciscan convent adjacent to the church and a museum with a collection of paintings, liturgical objects and objects of practical use.
