The ruined Priory Church is almost all that remains of the much bigger cathedral complex built in the 12th century. Although now without a roof and just a shell it has a fine Romanesque door arch.

Nearby is the museum which houses the finds from recent excavations including some excellent examples of cross parts, some almost complete and in fine condition.
