Comment
The Chapel of St. Anthony is a late Gothic bastion at the New Gate, rebuilt into a chapel in the 16th century. The irregular, buttressed temple has one nave closed by a five-sided presbytery. The interior is covered with a barrel vault with lunettes. The chapel is adjoined by towers; from the east, octagonal (lowered in 1790) and from the south-east, on a square plan. Both towers are topped with spires. The neo-Baroque, polychrome main altar of St. Anthony dates back to the early 20th century. The portal to the sacristy and the vault keystones are made of sandstone, popular at the time, and date back to the late Gothic period (16th century). The southern portal, the so-called curtain portal, is particularly interesting.
