It is a National Monument and is on the World Heritage tentative list.
It opens only from June to September: in June and September Wednesday to Saturday, and in July and August Tuesday to Saturday, from 10:00 to 13:00 and from 14:30 to 18:00. Admission without a guide, €6 (€5 for students, over-65s, walkers and cyclists); with a guide, €7.50. Up to age 12, free. In July and August there are guided tours on Wednesdays and Fridays at 10:30.
