Picturesque remains of a Gothic aqueduct from the 13th century. Destroyed three centuries later by the Huguenots and then restored, it was completely abandoned from the 17th century.

This church was built in the 15th and 16th centuries by Bishop Geoffroy Herbert. The almshouse has a lantern tower above the crossing, which, as was customary in the Renaissance, was increasingly lavishly decorated towards the top.

Unfortunately, it's the case here... getting a bit old... a craftsman's hand or two wouldn't hurt here

Remarkable architecture. The very rich decoration of the Renaissance-style lantern tower contrasts with the interior sobriety. Its shape is vaguely reminiscent of a tiara and would evoke the help provided by Pope Alexander VI in its construction. Inside, beautiful stalls carved with interlacing. In the left transept, some old stained glass windows. Elegant arches with quadruple covings. Bright interior space.
