MONUMENTS Urban center Highlights remarkable examples of civil architecture, mainly in the street of the Church and on Major Street. Parish Church of St. Peter the Apostle Dates from the late eighteenth century and stands out for its constructive simplicity. Indoors it shows a covered nave with cannon turn, reinforced by arches resting on buttresses and four intermediate

chapels. The door, which was restored in 1928, stands out throughout the pot. The bell tower, which is now above the entrance door to the temple, replaced an earlier bell tower of two bodies with the renovation carried out in the building in 2005. The village of Pinet suffered the consequences of the expulsion of the Moors, and in 1664 it counted only 20 inhabitants. This caused the town church to remain under the jurisdiction of the Dominican convent of Llutxent until the confiscation of the year 1835.
