CHURCH OF OUR LADY

Churches cathedrals basilicas and chapels

The building, built in several campaigns in the th century, is based on the western slope of the St. Mary Valley. The church has a lovely Romanesque-style steeple with a span and dotted apse, both of which have marked the beginning of its construction. The nave, remarkable of elegance and sobriety, will be founded shortly afterwards. The large arcades, which occupy more than two thirds of the total height, are double jumps softened by an tore. The octagonal basket capitals allow the arcades to return to circular batteries. The facade has a striking look thanks to a majestic portal with gâble and a large pink rose located just above. The facade and its interior rise give the nave of Gothic features that once again refer to the influence of the th century. Another crucial step in the construction process will be to the choir; two chapels will be annexed to it to solidify the base of the bell. The latter, in conclusion, has two floors: the first is pierced to the north and south by glass windows, while the upper floor is that of the belfry filigree of géminées baies bays.
