Sitio de interés cultural, útil para visitar y conocer la ideosincrasia de la zona, a destacar sus obras. Recomendable

Bardzo fajny kościół. Szkoda że jest tapeta. A nie prawdziwe.

Hemos entrado para ver la tumba de Rubens y, lamentablemente, la iglesia está en obras y no hemos podido ver casi nada de sus tesoros interiores.
