Hiking
A church with a large necropolis around it was unearthed immediately south of the western section of the medieval fortification wall. Designated as church number 3, in the order of finding. Build in the second half of the XIV century and designed as a single-nave church without a nartex, whose apse had 3 walls on the outside, while inside it was semi-circular. It was primarily a parish church before it was burned down in the early XV century. Later restored without ornamentation or a dome.
