  Yes they are beautiful Jo – have looked up about them again in the guidebook I bought at the Piona shop. The frescoes date back to the 15h and 16th century although only fragments now remain as you can see!

    Very distinctive style, though.

      Yes they certainly are Jo – not sure where they originally came from but they are one of the abbey’s treasures!
