Old cathedral of Saint-Vincent in Mâcon, classified as a historical monument, preserving only the 2 towers connected to each other

The two towers and the Romanesque narthex are the only remains of the former Saint-Vincent cathedral, built in the 6th century. Destroyed then rebuilt several times, this historic monument is now closed to the public, but the exterior is well worth a visit, either on your own or with a guided tour from the tourist office. You'll need to be patient for a few more years before you can enjoy the whole building, as major renovation work is due to start in 2025. Among other things, these will recreate the footbridge that linked the two towers in the 18th century.

Très beaux vestiges de cette église qui devait être grandiose en son temps, avec des tours très impressionnantes. Devrait faire le bonheur des amateurs de vieilles pierres et d'histoire de France.

Visité cet été, le quartier est très sympa. Les ruines de la cathédrale gothique sont à voir et sont encore en pas trop mauvais état. ça laisse place à l'imagination de l'immensité du bâtiment. La vue y est magnifique sur la ville de Macon.
