It is also called Saint Gilles Church.
With the help of a few volunteers, the municipality of Saint Forget has undertaken an ambitious program of restoration of what will prove to be a superb testimony of the art of the fresco painters of the late fifteenth century The frescoes discovered testify to a quality of craftsmanship evident both in terms of drawing, of the line as expressions and colors as well as a perfect mastery of the technique of Italian frescoes.
