An impressively spacious Baroque church, adorned with superb furnishings and a great organ.

Built from 1704, on the initiative of the bishop of Fréjus, the future cardinal Fleury, it has three naves and a cul-de-four apse. The bell tower was never completed, probably due to a lack of funds. The interior furnishings, from the 18th century, are superb with a beautiful baroque high altar, a sculpted pulpit, served by a double staircase. The great organ - two thousand pipes - is the work of the Alsatian organ builder Augustin Zeiger in 1837. Of great musical quality, it allows the organization of many concerts.

Stationnement gratuit à l’entrée du village rue des Climenes.
La collégiale Saint Martin est située à proximité et facilement repérable avec sa façade extérieure en pierres de taille, imposante et massive. L’entrée sur la petite place présente trois portes surmontées d’un cadre en pierre avec une niche. C’est une très grande église aux trois nefs et nombreuses travées. L’intérieur a aussi un style lourd, austère et sombre. Le chœur est orné de belles boiseries et à contempler aussi quelques mobiliers, décorations, chaire et un superbe orgue.
