The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, commonly known as the Round Church, is a striking Norman structure dating from 1130. Its circular nave, supported by thick columns, creates a unique and contemplative atmosphere. Visitors can admire the original Norman arches and a modern stained-glass window depicting the history of the church. The building is still an active place of worship and also houses a small exhibition on its history and the Crusades.
