The Església de Sant Cristòfol dates from the 18th century, was restored later and is neoclassical in style. It is the main temple of Picassent and the centre of the celebrations of Sant Cristòfol on 10 July, with the traditional bous festivities. Since 2005 the municipality has hosted the Valencian-language film festival Inquiet, so cultural life is added to the religious calendar. The restoration explains the present appearance of the building and its state of conservation. Church and festival thus coexist in the same municipality, each with its own audience and season.
