Inside of the church there is a ciborium which, above the central altar, protects the precious fresco which represents the Madonna in Trionfo between Saints and Musicians Angels.
In the below layers other frescos more ancient: San Bernardino, Sant’Antonio Abate, San Giorgio dated from XIV to XV century.
