to pay for the building. Construction of the church began
in 1377, but the building wasn't completed until 31st
May, 1890. At first the work was difficult because the
heaviest parts fell down and the builders had to repair
them. Then construction stopped from 1543 to 1817 for
political reasons. Today, tourists can visit the church
every day of the year. Winter opening hours are from 9
a.m. to 4.45 p.m. and the church is open in the summer
