The Gothic cathedral has a three-aisled nave with four bays, arranged in a basilica form on three floors. It consists of lower arcades open to the side aisles, a triforium with a walkway above, and a towering clerestory zone with large windows.

The western end is formed by a double-towered façade, in front of which protrudes a portal. The transept remains within the line of the side aisle walls and does not protrude beyond them. Adjacent to this is a choir bay, which terminates in a staggered choir to the east.

All of the cathedral's windows have pointed arches. Their reveals are extended both inside and out and divided into multiple stepped profiles. In the upper section, they display delicate tracery in typical Gothic forms such as circles, trefoils, quatrefoils, and pentagons. Depending on their width, the windows are divided into pointed arches by several stone bars.

Gothic style cathedral. Construction started in 128 and was completed in the first half of the 14th century.
