St. Mary the Virgin Church

After climbing the hill, which means 199 steps, we glimpsed, next to the ruins of the famous abbey, the church of Saint Mary the Virgin. It was one floor and Norman Romanesque pieces, but afterwards there were several renovations and additions (the latest in the 18th century). Like most churches in the area, the huge cemetery is next to the church, but in my opinion, it favours the landscape. From the hill you can see the whole town and its surroundings, including the port, the abbey and the local countryside. It's a beautiful view.
