The image, estimated to be taken around 1910, showcases the ornate and intricately carved exterior of this historic church, which is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of the region. The Church of St Michel is a masterpiece of Baroque and classical architecture, characterized by its grand columns and pillars, which support the elevated niches and intricately carved doorways. The intricate carvings on the facade depict various religious scenes, biblical figures, and ornate decorative motifs, which add to the church's grandeur and beauty. The steps leading up to the entrance of the church add to the sense of grandeur and importance of the building, while the frieze above the doorway showcases intricate carvings of angels and other religious symbols.
