On the authorised route, compare light in the cloister and church, pointed arches, buttresses and later rebuilding. Without a booking, begin with the exterior from the square.
View both sides from public space. Compare the small lower arches with the pointed upper arch. Do not climb the monument or obstruct residents passing by.
