Number of transepts

[edit]

Article currently [1] reads in part a nave, two transepts, two opposing apses, each one flanked by two belltowers.

This seems to me unlikely. It is far more likely that there was one transept, consisting of two semitransepts each of these containing an apse and flanked by two towers... one transept, two apses and four towers in all. This is a common misunderstanding of the term transept. Andrewa (talk) 04:21, 12 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
