Flamboyant Gothic church, one of the most beautiful in the region.

Built of granite, it is in the flamboyant Gothic style. The dates of construction (1471-1518) are inscribed on the lintel of the south portal. It is one of the most beautiful churches in the region. The south portal is the most richly decorated. On the façade, the upper part of the tower is Renaissance. Inside, the impression of verticality dominates. A curiosity: during Holy Week, the bells do not ring. In Ambert, the coraire, from the top of the terrace, uses his megaphone to call the faithful to the services on Good Friday and Holy Saturday.

Une belle église, très majestueuse, située en centre historique, ce qui vous permettra de visiter et flaner dans les vieilles ruelles et places aux alentours.
Cet église est à voir de par son architecture et sa hauteur qui est assez incroyable pour l'Auvergne, de beaux vitraux et un autel magnifique.
Endroit très frais en ce temps de forte chaleur

I saw it several times and I always dazzled by the architecture of the place as much outside than inside and by the serenity of the places I also like to stroll through the narrow streets to see the old houses
