The jobs of restoration are finished, the external scaffoldings have been removed and since March 05th it's possible to visit it.


The Cathedral was closed to the public, for restoration works, from the year 2003, when part of the inside structure of the cathedral collapsed and this that brought to the decision to start the restoration and maintenance works. Since then, excepted extraordinary openings, it has been impossible to visit its inside.
