Built in 1475 as a response to the plague, St. Sebastian is not the large, gothic style many larger churches are known for. Instead, it is a simple structure with semi-ornate designs inside. The churchyard cemetery has a few gravestones damaged over the centuries. Only two have their information intact. The rest had secondary stones with names and dates which no longer exist. In 1929, the cemetery was cleared and moved to another one outside town. The chapel was no longer used and became overgrown. 1975, a local club was formed to maintain the church in response to its 500th anniversary. 2005, the club repaired the roof. The interior is generally closed to the public, except for special occasions.
