There's a castle that's been in the same place since the 12th century, but the current building is from the 18th century. There's an old wooden church dating to late 16th century, a large church built in 1642 but its current look is from the 19th century, and a bunch of houses from 17th and 18th century.
There are also roman ruins dating back to at least 1st century.
