The Wars of Religion affected the monument, whose bell tower has been rebuilt and portal has been restored. The latter features mediaeval chapiters. The stain glass of the large rose windows dates from the 19th century.
The nave is particularly vast, with a perched lancet-arch vault that is over sixteen metres high. The decoration on the chapiters is highly diverse. Building work on the side chapels began in the 16th century. Numerous protected paintings can be found here.
