In the heart of the city, the monolithic church recalls the religious activity of the city in the Middle Ages and intrigues with its unusual design. If it reveals itself to the visitor by the position of a 68-metre-high bell tower, it then slips behind the elegance of three openings in the façade and an often closed Gothic portal. The church is as surprising as it is fragile!
