St Peter's Church
Description
St Peter's Church stands at the heart of the upper town, which had fortifications in the Middle Ages. Its entrance portal looks out onto a square on which stand a mission cross and the portal of the clergy house, both classified monuments historiques as well.
St Peter's Church is a former collegiate church with a Romanesque tower and a modern belltower. Its 12th-century nave and side aisles have capitals. The transept also dates back to the 12th century; yet its chevet was modified in the 18th and 19th centuries.
The church houses the tombstone of Saint Euchaire, a 16th-century Renaissance gisant in a funeral niche. The interior is also decorated with 18th-century paintings and old mural paintings.
The western portal was modified but a part of the old sculpture is still visible today.
