Ancient and Beautiful. It was partly closed when I visited but staffs took us to the construction site anyhow, my first impression was that interior must not be that beautiful, but while I saw inside the church, the architectural elements of this building are well arranged and constructed. The building needs a better attention though.

An amazing church. Plenty of paintings, besides the notorious one from Rubens. The stained glasses are just lovely too. Then there are sculptures, columns with their capitals, arches and wooden structures which are just dainty. As a matter of fact, what I liked the most is the plan of the building and its shapes, very symmetric, rich and imposing. The atmosphere is holy and calm (in the middle of the afternoon recorded music was on). The part behind the altar is still under renovation, so wasn't able to venture everywhere, but I'll be back. Ps. There's also a nicely done replica of a wooden crucifix by Cimabue.
