ST. CAPITANO'S CATHEDRAL
Read moreThe cathedral is named after a martyr, Saint Caprais. Decapitated, his skull rests in a reliquary at the back of the chapel. On the east side, observe the very comical modillions on the Romanesque apsidioles, especially this little piggy who hides his eyes. The 19th century bell tower is built in the Gothic style. The facade has been renovated and the forecourt, inaugurated in 2020, leaves more room for pedestrians. The pilgrim of Toutain looks towards the road to Compostela and archaeological discoveries were made during its renovation (sarcophagus, coffins ...).

ROSARY TOUR
Read moreLocated in the immediate vicinity of Saint-Caprais cathedral, this tower classified as Historic Monument, is the last vestige of the second enclosure of Agen. In the Middle Ages, the city was protected by an important fortification system and if the tower has survived, it is because it has been the bell tower of the Benedictines convent for a long time. The convent was liquidated after the French Revolution and this tower was used as a jail from 1815. Long neglected, it has been restored and now houses an architectural firm.
