Hakkında
Hızlı bilgiler: The Basilica of Saint Nazaire houses a 14th-century stained glass window that tells the story of the Cathar Crusade. The building stands on the site of an old church from the 6th century, and its walls feature carvings that tell stories of knights and kings.
Öne çıkanlar: Beneath the feet of visitors in the nave of the church, there are three stone-carved tombs of 13th-century bishops. You can see their effigies dressed in full episcopal robes. In the northwest corner, a morning sunbeam illuminates the great rose window, which is 8 meters in diameter, casting its blue and red colors onto the Romanesque stone pillars.
