A Gothic hall church with three aisles of equal height, built between 1517 and 1533 with money from the city council to win back the bishop's seat, lost in 1149 and recovered in 1573. Six clustered columns carry its star-ribbed vaults. The alabaster high altarpiece has a base by Damián Forment, and its upper tiers date from 1600 to 1602.
