The massive fortress-like facade does not really suggest what awaits you in the interior--a magnificent nave with two domes, one painted with ancient frescoes, and a plethora of tiny chapels all around the aisles and the apse. On the exterior, the north (?) portal is really magnificent with impressive sculptures above the door and floral decorations around the arches. The stone used for the architecture is alternate courses of black and white limestone, enhancing the sculptural decoration. Off the south side of the church, you open the door into an amazing cloister with elaborate flamboyant Gothic decoration.
