Dating back to the 12th century, the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de la Sede blends Romanesque foundations with baroque and gothic features added over the centuries. Its prominent apses make the church stand out, while the interior is adorned with ornate ecclesiastical relics and works of art. Visit Cathédrale Notre-Dame de la Sede to take shelter from the heat of a summer afternoon inside its cool and sumptuous nave. Admire the color pattern of the brickwork on the round apses. The exterior is also notable for an elaborate rose window and central tower. Notice how the church’s exterior resembles a fortress it was constructed using round stones from the Adour River. Inspect the array of religious gems and ornaments in the treasure house. Head inside to witness the lively atmosphere in this busy church. Many worshippers come to this historic cathedral in the hope of being healed. Marvel at the opulence of the marble canopy that houses the main altar. Enter the Chapel of the Blessed Virgin and study the black marble wall engraved with words by King Louis XVI. Consider the rich history of the cathedral, which was built on a Merovingian cemetery. It is thought that St. Vincent de Paul was ordained as a deacon here at the end of the 16th century.
