Reviews
- NN.Superb architecture. Digital entrance and no queues. I enjoyed the refectory, although I would have liked a little more spot lighting.
- LL.Magical and serene cloister. Children in wheelchairs well looked after. Round digital entrance. Refectory a little less luminous, but good.
- JJ.Pure heritage with no stress. The cloister speaks for itself. Ticket always on the mobile. Dim light in the refectory brings mysticism.
- EE.Cloister, full of symbolism and silence. Immediate entry, no extra charge. Refectory somewhat darker, but very authentic.
