In the chapel there are three sculpture groups: the Entombment group from 1643, the Lamentation, or "Holy Grave" group, and the Resurrection group created in 1750.
The first mention of it as an urban settlement dates back to the 12th century. This is also the time when construction of the town's fortifications began, which were extended and secured until the early 18th century. Remains of this ring of walls and towers have been preserved to this day as architectural witnesses of past centuries.
