The cathedral church was originally part of a Benedictine Priory and refounded as a cathedral in 1541. The main body was built between 1093 and 1130, with alterations and additions made in the 13th and 15th centuries.
The chapel has two tall stages, with a tall narrow arch in the first stage. Above is a gallery or platform at the same height as the triforium, and an opening in the clerestory level.
