The façade finds room among close streets: its concave shape makes the Baroque design visible without a broad square in front. Watch how lines curve and relief changes as you move. When the church opens, compare that exterior with nave and altar. Allow a slow look while respecting worship and keeping the entrance clear for people arriving or leaving the building.

Plan this visit
Concavity as a response to the street
The official listing explains that nearby houses influenced the façade’s concave design. We suggest viewing it along your approach and then from one side: compare which parts seem to project or recede. This connects a Baroque decision with a specific urban problem instead of treating decoration as an independent addition to the building.
Compare outside and inside
If choosing to enter when possible, notice how the feeling changes between an enclosed street and the church’s three naves. Find a sightline leading towards the altar, then compare it with the façade’s movement afterwards. Having visited the cathedral, focus here on the relationship between street and building instead of repeating a complete survey of chapels. Choose one comparison and give it close attention.
