During the latter restoration project, the flooring was restored and the statues and decorative elements which had suffered the greatest war damage were replaced.
As you can see on my first picture, the cathedral is again under the major reconstructions, therefore the front side of it is covered and cannot be seen....

If possible, it would definitely worth seeing a football match at this stadium.
