POI
A monument that reflects the transition between Gothic and Renaissance is the imperial fountain, built in front of the church in 1517. It has a large façade divided into three streets separated by Ionic columns and adorned at the ends by scrolled finials. The central street displays a large coat of arms framed by a cavetto molding with the arms of Charles V on a winged double-headed eagle; on the sides there are other laureate coats of arms. It is crowned by gargoyles with vases at the ends and a cresting runs along the upper zone.
