Church of la Asunción de Sax

Parish church of Sax, one of the municipality's main heritage buildings alongside the castle. It is a single-nave temple in the shape of a Latin cross, built in the 16th century, of which the late-Gothic ribbed vault covering the nave survives. In the 18th century it received a Classicist refacing, with an upper gallery and the chapels of the Communion and of the Pilar. Its Renaissance north doorway stands out, recalling the church of Saint James in Villena.
