Although a number of preparatory studies and diagnostic surveys had made it possible to identify the main phases of the work, earlier surveys had failed to reveal the impressive amount of polychrome finally uncovered on the walls and vaults of the nave, transept and choir during the 2024-2025 restoration project.
While it is not yet possible to date all these painted decorations precisely, it is clear that the polychromy that has been rediscovered allows us to see the building as it appeared to the faithful at the end of the Middle Ages or at the beginning of the Renaissance, when the vaults of the nave were being completed.... Even if 19th-century neo-Gothic painting is also present!
It's an original visit based on a genuine rediscovery, as the restoration work continues in the chapels!
