À propos
Faits rapides: The cathedral hosts a collection of over 200 azulejos tiles telling biblical stories in vivid blue and white. Its massive Gothic doors weigh more than a ton, crafted from centuries-old oak wood.
Points forts: A secret treasure lies in the crypt where Saint Martin is said to have preached, with walls echoing chants from medieval times. Visitors also find the cloisters especially enchanting, filled with rare botanic species and century-old fountains whispering soft water sounds.
Conseils d'initiés
- Wear comfortable shoes for cobblestone paths and uneven floors.
- Capture the dappled light in cloisters mid-morning for stunning photos.
- Avoid weekends to enjoy more quiet time inside the cathedral.
- Don't miss the museum at the back for an overview of religious artifacts related to the cathedral.

Les visites à pied gratuites. Oui, vraiment gratuites. Pas besoin de carte de crédit. Pas de piège.
