Historical sites and views from the tops of hills make my day.
You did some serious biking!

thanks for posting the photos. I always like looking at them.
On the third from the bottom, what is behind the curtain?

It is a small alter. These little churches are all over and formally used about once per year, on the day of the Saint.
I couldn't identify the saint for this church
