Description

The choir ends in the shape of a hemicycle and is surrounded by six chapels which each form a protrusion. Two doors open onto the main facade. A pillar divides the largest of the doors in two. The two doors have a lowered arc lowered and are decorated with vine garlands. Piédroits are embellished by statuettes placed in niches, each surmounted by a canopy. A large bas-relief, which is now damaged, illustrating the entrance to Christ in Jerusalem, was in the tympanum of the largest door. The northern transept door was also crowned with a bas-relief representing Christ in a mandorle.
