The church
The church in Veseud was a Romanesque basilica built in the 13th century. It probably had the typical semi-circular apse attached to the choir but it was most likely torn down in the 15th century when the five-storey tower was built above the choir.



 Two walled up arcades were discovered in the southern and northern walls of the choir during restoration works conducted in 1968. The tower has a wooden wall passage on its last floor. Its breastwork is made on wooden frames filled up with adobe and rods. There is a clock installed on each of the four sides of the breastwork, however the four clocks are no longer functional. All that is now left of the Romanesque basilica is the round chancel arch.


The fortification



An 1857 description by Friedrich Mueller tells of the existence of two square-plan defensive towers equipped with wall passages, and of two circular bastions which were probably built after the towers.
